Как перенести базу данных postgresql на другой диск windows

Migrating the data cluster from C:\ to E:\

I’m new to working with large data in Windows, and ran into some unexpected difficulty when the PostgreSQL database ran out of space on my server’s C drive. It might also be a good idea to isolate your postgres database from a location other than the C:\Program Files\ folder for permissions/security/data integrity reasons (I had a reference for this but I lost it). Here’s how to move your PostgreSQL data directory

Basing myself on this dba.stackex answer and this wiki post

1. Stop the PostgreSQL service

Go to Start > Services. Scroll down to postgresql-x64-9.5 and right-click Stop

2. Copy data

I copied the data with File Explorer from C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\data\ to E:\pg_db\data

3. Modify postgresql.conf (probably not necessary if you move everything to the new location)

I edited the following lines

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# FILE LOCATIONS
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

# The default values of these variables are driven from the -D command-line
# option or PGDATA environment variable, represented here as ConfigDir.

data_directory = 'E:\pg_db\data'		# use data in another directory
					# (change requires restart)
hba_file = 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\data\pg_hba.conf'	# host-based authentication file
					# (change requires restart)
ident_file = 'C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\data\pg_ident.conf'	# ident configuration file
					# (change requires restart)

4. Modify the command that starts PostgreSQL

If you Right Click to Properties on the PostgreSQL services in Services, you’ll notice that the startup command is

"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\bin\pg_ctl.exe" runservice -N "postgresql-x64-9.5" -D "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\data" -w

The -D "C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\data" flag is indicating that the data directory is C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\data

DO NOT EDIT THE REGISTRY

In any case, I didn’t have permission on the server I was using and it seems to be a Bad Idea(tm) see here

Direct registry modification should be avoided (because you can’t be sure what else Windows is changing when it modifies the path to exe, f.e.) unless you are absolutely sure what you do

Start the cmd prompt as an administrator by hitting the Windows button and typing cmd then right-clicking “Run as Administrator”

You can see the current configuration for PostgreSQL by typing sc qc postgresql-x64-9.5 1000 and hitting Enter.

Modify the configuration to the following with the sc command

sc config postgresql-x64-9.5 binPath= "\"C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.5\bin\pg_ctl.exe\" runservice -N \"postgresql-x64-9.5\" -D \"E:\pg_db\data\" -w"

5. Change permissions for the new data directory

For the new data-dictionary folder: Right-click on it and click Properties. Under the Security Tab click “Edit...” and then “Add...”. Type “Network Service” and then click “Check Names”, make sure it has Modify and Full Control permissions and then click OK.
Equally important PostgreSQL needs to be able to “see” the data-directory (see my ServerFault.StackEx question), i.e. it needs to have read access to the parent directories above it. So Right-click on the pg_db folder and under the Security Permissions add Network Services again, but this time it only needs Read & Execute as well as List folder contents permissions.

6. Restart the Service

Go back to the Services window (if it was still open, refresh it) and Start the PostgreSQL service. You should be able to connect to it again in PGAdmin

Зная несколько способов переноса базы постгри, расскажу вам об одном — самом простом и понятном. И проверенного на собственном опыте.

1. Отключаем службу постгри. Заходим в Администрирование — Службы. Находим PostgreSQLDatabaseServer, кликаем правой кнопкой мыши, и нажимаем Стоп.

2. Создаём и переносим базу. Выбираем диск, на который вы бы хотели перенести базу. В моём случае диск F. На этом диске создаём папку ProgramFilesPostgreSQLdata. В эту папку копируем содержимое оригинальной папки (которая создавалась по умолчанию при установке PostgreSQL) — C:Program FilesPostgreSQL8.3data. (у меня 8.3., у вас может быть другая версия).

3. Указываем путь к новой папке. Пуск — Выполнить и вводим regedit. Жмём Enter.

В открывшемся окне в папке HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicespostgresql-Х.x находим magePath. Нажимаем правой кнопкой мыши и выбираем Изменить. Откроется ещё одно окно «Изменение строкового параметра». В нем меняем путь к перенесённой базе.

Старый путь должен выглядеть так — «C:Program FilesPostgreSQL8.3binpg_ctl.exe» runservice -w -N «pgsql-8.3» -D «С:Program FilesPostgreSQL8.3data»

«C:Program FilesPostgreSQL8.3binpg_ctl.exe» runservice -w -N «pgsql-8.3» -D «F:Program FilesPostgreSQLdata»

Жмём Ок и перезагружаем компьютер. И, если вы всё сделали правильно, и ХМ2 при запуске находит PostgreSQL, то папку data на диске С можно удалять.
