I'm just coming at this from the point of view of someone who's implementing PostgreSQL for the first time, but has in-depth Oracle experience. This is the one area left where organisations are going to discount PostgreSQL because they can't afford to tell people that all data entered that day has to be re-entered (sorry) because of a database corruption. How slick it is doesn't matter initially, as long as it can reliably be done. Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruce Momjian" <pgman@candle.pha.pa.us> To: "Chad R.

That's why it is under URGENT on the TODO list. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026
