Обсуждение: reloading dump produces errors

I thought you could use 8.3.* tools against any 8.3.* database, is this
not correct?  I'm getting the following errors:

pg_dumpall -g -p 5436 -h matrix

server version: 8.3.7; pg_dumpall version: 8.3.6
aborting because of version mismatch  (Use the -i option to proceed anyway.)

Would using the '-i' option be safe in this case?

Chances are it will be fine.  I don't think the developers will
guarantee anything except doing a dump from a version >= to your
server version, though.
