I don’t think pg_restore is able to deal with your split files.

What was the reasoning for doing this?  Did you try first on smaller table/files to see if your dump/split/restore procedure would work?

pg_dump dbname -n schemaname -t table_name -Fc | split -b 500m -t table.dump

How exactly did you create “split” dump?

Hi All -

 

    I have created a dump of a big table into 5 split files.  What is the procedure to restore them using pg_dump.

 

I am getting the following error

 

pg_restore: [custom archiver] could not read from input file: end of file

pg_restore: *** aborted because of error

 

Appreciate your help.

 

Regards
