I've got my own machine with postgres dmp file, which I want to restore on the remote virtual machine (e.g. ip is 192.168.0.190 and postgres port is 5432) in my network. Is it possible to restore this dump using pg_restore without copying dump to remote machine? Because the size of dump about 12GB and the disk space on the virtual machine is 20GB. Thanks

sql , which uses the plain or SQL format, the pg_dump command does not store any file anywhere. It just sends the output to STDOUT , which is usually your screen, and it's done.
It took ~60 minutes.
Description. pg_restore is a utility for restoring a PostgreSQL database from an archive created by pg_dump in one of the non-plain-text formats. It will issue the commands necessary to reconstruct the database to the state it was in at the time it was saved.
You can run a restore over the network without copying the dump to the remote host.
Just invoke pg_restore with -h <hostname> and -p <port> (and probably -U <username> to authenticate as different user) on the host you got the dump file, for example:
pg_restore -h 192.168.0.190 -p 5432 -d databasename -U myuser mydump.dump References:
