If I want to copy a cluster from one host to an identical other (same size, disk layout etc.) am I right to assume that the can just:

 

1.       Tar up /var/lib/pgsql on the original

2.       ftp to the target

3.       Extract tarfile into /var/lib/pgsql on the target

4.       Start PostgreSQL

 

Thanks
