Knut and Jason are both right.  There is no point dumping tables which can
be recreated.

 

But that in itself shouldn't cause an error restoring a dump and 16G is far
from huge (of course too big for notepad++ but that's a different issue).
What was the error message?

This advice may be a bit late for you,  but I would recommend excluding
analytics when you do a backup.

Hi team

 

I am having a challenge on restoring a postres dump which is large (16gig),
it gives an error on restoring data in table analytics 2014.

 

Can anyone please help with how I can go around it, or maybe how to edit the
dump (notepad++ cannot open the file is too large).
