create all indexes and triggers in a schema after bulk load
Hi Group
I am looking at doing a CDC-based upgrade using the following steps:
1. pg_dump schema on source, but exclude indexes and triggers
2. recreate schema on target
3. Do a full load from source to target
4. Recreate all the indexes and triggers on the target
The migration will automatically switch from full load to CDC when all
tables are fully loaded.
Is there a way to just recreate all indexes and triggers using a
separate pg_dump on source to capture the ddl and then run it on the target?
Please advise
Thanks

There is no need for separate pg_dump.
Just dump once, with -Fc, or (better) -Fd, and then use pg_restore
-l/-L.
