Hi!

I have a huge DB here which I would like to replicate with pgpool.
pgpool is configured for replication with two (backend-) servers. This
DB has now to be replicated and the way which makes sense to me is to do
a dump and sending it to the pgpool backend (pgpool listens on port 5432
here):

  $ pg_dump -d to_be_replicated -h host_to_be_replicated -o -F c | \
    pg_restore -d replicated_db -h host_replicated

Is this the correct way for getting a consistent replicated DB?

Best regards!
Christian
