Unfortunately it doesn't work as expected.
It silently skip to restore the second backup (schema_only.bak).
I'm surprised it didn't output any error message, but the cache
tables aren't there.
It seems that you have to actually restore the 2 backup separately.
pg_restore -1 -d mydb < nearly_full.bak
pg_restore -1 -d mydb < schema_only.bak
I can't think of any other way to restore both in one transaction
unless I backup in plain text. But that should have other drawback.
Any hint?
