.ExternalClass .EC_hmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.EC_hmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;} Hi all,
 
I need to do a backup from a big table that is in a machine with almost no disk space.
Running pg_dump from another machine needs much space on the DB host? Or it just outputs the data as it goes?
 
Is there a better way to do this?
 
Thanks,
 
Nelson
