Backup

Hello, I am testing PostgreSQL for my company.  I have it up and running
and am fairly happy with it.  One question is how do you backup?  The
only function I see that would kinda do it is the pg_dump function.  Do
I have to automate this function with cron or something?  Then automate
a copy to tape also?  Please let me know.  I am currently using version
6.3.2 but will upgrade to 6.4 soon.  I'm on RedHat Linux 5.1.  Any other
general comments would be appreciated also.

Thanks in advance,

Matt O'Connor
