Currently, you can import data backed up from
pg_dump to PostgreSQL for Serverless through the psql command.Directions
If your data is already in a self-built PostgreSQL database, you can use the
psql command to easily migrate the data to PostgreSQL for Serverless.
The data migration is mainly divided into two steps:1. Perform logical backup by using the
pg_dump command to create dump data.2. Restore the data backed up in the previous step to PostgreSQL for Serverless.
Prerequisites
Step 1. Export data
Connect to the local database by using the PostgreSQL client and run the following command to back up the data.
pg_dump -U username -h hostname -p port -O databasename -f filename
Note:
In order to avoid execution permission problems, you need to add the
-O parameter.Parameter | Description |
username | Local database username |
hostname | Local database host name |
port | Local database port number |
databasename | Name of the local database to be backed up |
filename | Name of the backup file to be generated, such as mydump.sql |
Step 2. Import data to PostgreSQL for Serverless
Preparations: upload the data backed up to a CVM instance in the same VPC as the PostgreSQL for Serverless instance, and then restore the data over the private network to ensure network stability and data security.
Log in to the CVM instance and run the following command in the PostgreSQL client to restore the data.
psql -U username -h hostname -d desintationdb -p port -f dumpfilename
Note:
During the import, there may be some errors reported. You can find the specific causes according to the error messages. Some errors don't affect the data import.
Parameter | Description |
username | PostgreSQL for Serverless database username |
hostname | PostgreSQL for Serverless database address |
desintationdb | PostgreSQL for Serverless database name |
port | PostgreSQL for Serverless database port number |
dumpfilename | Backup file name, such as mydump.sql |
Yes
No
