> <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>pg_dumpall</SPAN
> is a utility for writing out
(<SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"dumping"</SPAN
>) all <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> databases
of a cluster into one script file. The script file contains
<ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>SQL</ACRONYM
> commands that can be used as input to <A
HREF="app-psql.html"
><SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>psql</SPAN
></A
> to restore the databases. It does this by
calling <A
HREF="app-pgdump.html"
>pg_dump</A
> for each database in a cluster.
<SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>pg_dumpall</SPAN
> also dumps global objects
that are common to all databases.
(<SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>pg_dump</SPAN
> does not save these objects.)
This currently includes information about database users and
groups, tablespaces, and properties such as access permissions
that apply to databases as a whole.
</P
><P
> Since <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>pg_dumpall</SPAN
> reads tables from all
databases you will most likely have to connect as a database
superuser in order to produce a complete dump. Also you will need
superuser privileges to execute the saved script in order to be
allowed to add users and groups, and to create databases.
</P
><P
> The SQL script will be written to the standard output. Use the
[-f|file] option or shell operators to redirect it into a file.
</P
><P
> <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>pg_dumpall</SPAN
> needs to connect several
times to the <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> server (once per
database). If you use password authentication it will ask for
a password each time. It is convenient to have a
<TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>~/.pgpass</TT
> file in such cases. See <A
HREF="libpq-pgpass.html"

This sometimes results in compatibility issues when dealing with
