Hi,

 

I’ve been tasked with migrating our production database from Postgres 9.0 on Windows to Postgres 10.0 on Linux. I’ve used pg_dump and pg_restore and it works fine but the time taken for my dry run of the migration is about 12 hours (8 hours backup and 4 hours restore)

 

What can I do to reduce the migration time so that I can get production up and running again as soon as possible? I have the option to upgrade either machine if that helps and in that case what would help most faster disk IOPS? RAM? CPU?

 

Peter
