Hi Postgres Guru's,

Is it possible to use the Hot Backup (PITR Backup) of PostgreSQL on an Operating system to restore the database on other Operating system.

Thanks & Regards

Nope, Hot Backup (Online Backup) of PostgreSQL, on One OS/File System is not compatible with the Other OS/FileSystem.

If you want to Move the Database from One OS/File System to other OS/Filesystem then use pg_dump/pg_dumpall command to take the backup of database.
