I am very new to Postgres and have always worked in the mssql world. I'm looking for suggestions on DB backups. I currently have a DB used to store Historical information that has images it's currently around 100gig.
I'm looking to take a monthly backup as I archive a month of data at a time. I am looking for it to be compressed and have a machine that has multiple cpu's and ample memory.
Suggestions on things I can try ?
I did a pg_dump using these parms --format=t --blobs lobarch
it ran my device out of storage:
pg_dump: error: could not write to output file: No space left on device
I have 150gig free on my backup drive... can obviously add more
looking for the quickest and smallest backup file output...
