Hello, Due to a large database size, my weekend database backup (pg_dumpall) takes about 12 hours to complete. Additionally, I add the --no-unlogged-table-data option to skip any volatile tables. One UNLOGGED table in the database is completely regenerated every day with a TRUNCATE TABLE/INSERT command. However, despite the --no-unlogged-table-data option, the table still gets locked by the pg_dump(all), preventing the operation from completing for several hours during backups. To the extent possible, I would like to request a way to prevent certain (UNLOGGED) tables from being locked against truncate/schema changes for the extent of an entire database backup. For example: . pg_dump does not lock unlogged tables if --no-unlogged-table-data is set . pg_dump supports sequential table locks / unlocks during backups (only the table that is currently being copied is locked, rather than all tables for the entire backup). . Support a way to automatically replace the TRUNCATE command with DELETE if TRUNCATE cannot immediately obtain a lock.
