Everyone,

-

The guys on one of our servers deleted a table and need the data from
it. Somehow, our backup job did not run.
We have the pg_xlog that should (may) contain the deleted data. We
need to know if there is a way to extract the
records that were deleted from the file and write them back into the
table. Is there a way to retrieve the data from
the pg_xlog?

This is a server running x86 Solaris 10, postgres 8.2.4.

Naomi
