'lo all.  Just found a new one.  We have a number of postgres backups
we run nightly
with the command:

/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump -U postgres -Ft city | /bin/gzip -5 >
city.out.bz


We just got a new one, one of the cities is just too big for tar:

2008-10-06 07:18:31 - pg_dump: [tar archiver] archive member too large
for tar format

Anyone run into this and know a way around it?

Robert
