Re: how do I do dump and restore without bugging with constraint?

Thanks. Is it by doing these steps I can avoid constrain restriction? for
step 3, how should I modify the schema? and which schema? the target DB's
schema that I am trying to dump the schema and data in? But this is the
problem, I am not sure whats different between the two schema's, there are
just too many tables to check. What's your tips?
