  Are pg_dump's consistent? Do i have to shutdown the system in order to make 
a pg_dump? What other alternatives are for backing up a database without 
shutting down the system in order to allow consistent backups?
  Another question: Can the rows that haven't been vaccumed yet retrieved?

  Thanks for your help. Bye!!
