have a server that went belly up on us.

We do have copies of the data directories on backups, but no recent dumps.
Old server was ver 7.0 branch (7.0.3 if memory serves)

New server is set up with pg ver 7.3 branch (7.3.4)

Is there any way to recover the data using the 7.0 data files?

We do have another server that has a 7.0 branch installation... have not tried
transplanting the data files to that server as of yet.

thoughts, shared experiences, or other such insight would be appreciated.

Dave
