Importing data

This procedure describes how to import data to a PostgreSQL datastore located in CCX.

  • The PostgreSQL Datastore on CCX is denoted as the 'replica'
  • The source of the data is denoted as the 'source'

Create a database dump file

Dump the database schema from the <DATABASE> you wish to replicate:

pg_dump --no-owner -d<DATABASE> > /tmp/DATABASE.sql

Apply the dumpfile on the replica

postgres=# CREATE DATABASE <DATABASE>;

Copy the DSN from Nodes, Connection Information in the CCX UI. Change 'ccxdb' to <DATABASE>:

psql postgres://ccxadmin:.../<DATABASE> <  /tmp/DATABASE.sql
