I'm going with C. The command is creating a plain-text backup, not some fancy binary format.

I agree with User2, it's D. C is incorrect because it's not about the format.

No, it's actually D. It includes user and group information in the backup.

I think it's B. It's backing up the postgresql.conf file too.

Ha! Option E is definitely the incorrect statement. Who would ever think you can access the databases during a backup? That's just silly.

Yeah, that doesn't make sense. It's risky to access databases while backing up.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I'm going to go with B - it doesn't look like the command is backing up the postgresql.conf file.

D seems to be the incorrect statement here. The command is clearly backing up the databases, not the user and group information.
