Re: Reload only specific databases from pg_dumpall

Well... I assumed that'd be the case; production dumps are not small... this
calls for some scripting stuff; the script should basically the steps
mentioned above, and you will have a trimmed down version of the dump
file... :)

But again, the script should be fast enough to make this additional step
look smaller than the time required to restore+drop unwanted DBs.

Best regards,
