hi all.

just coming up to speed on the idea-basics, but thought i'd ask (*while* i rtfm ...) if "it" can
be done in/with pgadmin3.

i've numerous boxes with pgsql instances, and the usual assortment of DBs/box.

backing up, til now, has been script-driven, each box being backed up separately ... but, now,
getting to be tedious/messy.

i'd like to back up to a central server, with version control.

from irc chat, sounds like the right way to do this is connect from local to remote, pg_dump
remote db to local disk over network, and implement "point in time recovery" (cref:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/backup-online.html).

in principle, all doable via shell script ...

doable/automated via pgadmin3?

thoughts/comments?

thx!

richard
