Thread: backing up and restoring a db using pgadmin II

Hello all,
    Im an extreme newbee and I would like to know how to backup and restore a
postgres db using pgadminn II

Thanks
TJ

Hi TJ,

pgAdmin doesn't perform backups (or restorations). That is done by
pg_dump on the server, or from a remote command line. This is primarily
because only pg_dump is kept 100% up to date with the backend code.

Regards, Dave.
