Before you can use the pgAdmin client to manage the objects that reside on your
|
|
Postgres server, you must define a connection to the server. You can
|
|
(optionally) use the *Server Group* dialog to create server groups to organize
|
|
the server connections within the tree control for easier management. To open
|
|
the *Server Group* dialog, right-click on the *Servers* node of the tree
|
|
control, and select *Server Group* from the *Create* menu.

|
Use the fields on the *Server* dialog to define the connection properties for
|
|
each new server that you wish to manage with pgAdmin. To open the *Server*
|
|
dialog, right-click on the *Servers* node of the tree control, and select
|
|
*Server* from the *Create* menu.

|
|

|
After defining a server connection, right-click on the server name, and select
|
|
*Connect to server* to authenticate with the server, and start using pgAdmin to
|
|
manage objects that reside on the server.

Server definitions (and their groups) can be exported to a JSON file and
|
|
re-imported to the same or a different system to enable easy pre-configuration
|
|
of pgAdmin.
