Where do I find the init-script

[nednieuws | charles]

I've been asked to send the init-script along with the dump. Where can I find it?

In /etc/init.d/ on linux (or /etc/rc.d/init.d/)
Apparently, on freebsd it sits in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/

Oh, is that it. I thought they were talking about a script to init the db :-).

They said: If you send the init script along with the dump, it's easier to restore the db.

Hmm - that's probably not what they want.

I'm guessing they mean the SQL to recreate the database. Normally pg_dump will
dump both the schema-creationg SQL and the data for the tables. You can
restrict this with --data-only or --schema-only.

Alternatively, pg_restore can restore only the schema or data (if you want).

Difficult to say what "they" mean - what is the context for this?
