本节介绍了PostgreSQL中逻辑备份的工具pg_dumpall和pg_dump。
pg_dumpall和pg_dump都是PG提供的逻辑备份工具，顾名思义，pg_dumpall可以一键dump所有的数据库，而pg_dump只能逐个database处理，下面来详细对比两个工具的异同。
pg_dumpall
pg_dumpall可以一键dump database cluster，dump文件的格式为plain text file，可通过psql直接读取处理。同时pg_dumpall会dump全局的数据，包括角色、表空间等。但pg_dumpall存在一些问题：
1.dump文件很大：只能存储为plain格式，由于没有压缩，存储原始的数据，dump文件的size会很大；
2.dump的性能较慢：使用pg_dumpall，由于无法使用并行只能逐个处理，因此dump的过程会比较慢；
3.部分恢复很困难：由于所有数据均存储在一个文件中，因此难以进行部分的恢复。
使用-v选项，可看到执行pg_dumpall的输出

pg_dump可指定导出为p-plain、c-custom、d-directory和t-tar格式，其中plain格式与dumpall格式一样，内容一样，执行恢复操作一样；另外三种格式使用pg_restore工具恢复。

使用c和d选项，数据大概是p和t选项的15%左右。
在恢复时，如需要执行部分恢复，可通过pg_restore的-l选项列出dump文件中的内容并输入到metadata文件中，编辑相应的metadata文件，可指定需要恢复的数据表。
[pg12@localhost ~]$ pg_restore -l /tmp/dump-c

下面体验下pd_restore的并行恢复
#串行模式
[pg12@localhost ~]$ dropdb testdb; time psql -qAtX -v ON_ERROR_STOP=1 -f /tmp/dump-p -d postgres
dropdb: error: database removal failed: ERROR: database "testdb" does not exist
real 1m13.347s
user 0m1.716s
sys 0m2.333s
[pg12@localhost ~]$
#并行模式（8个）
[pg12@localhost ~]$ dropdb testdb ; time pg_restore -j 8 -C -d postgres /tmp/dump-c
real 0m58.394s
user 0m1.680s
sys 0m0.550s
[pg12@localhost ~]$
并行模式有20%的性能提升。
其实在dump的时候亦可指定并行，但需要与-F d选项配合使用。
