What do you mean by "recovery"? I can think of at least three
possibilities:
(1) Restore from backup: simply feed the output from 'pg_dump' to
'psql' as the PG superuser.
(2) Point-in-time recovery after a restore: PG doesn't do it yet.
(3) Starting up the database after a system crash: just do it. PG
will generally recover up to the last committed transaction.
