+### Backups via pg_dumpall(1) ###
+
+This is an alternative backup strategy that creates full dumps of the whole database cluster using pg_dumpall(1).
+
+- `postgresql_pgdump_dir`: If set, enables pg_dumpall(1)-backups. Set this to the directory where the dumps should be written. There is no distinction between local and archive directories; it is assumed that this directory is "safe enough" and has enough storage space available.

+- `postgresql_pgdump_cronspec`: This specifies the first 5 fields of the crontab-entry that will be govern the pgdump-schedule. Defaults to "00 18 * * 1-7", which means "start the dump each day at 18:00".
+
+- `postgresql_pgdump_filespec`: Controls the names of the dump files created. The default creates a file for each day of the week that will be overwritten after seven days.
+
 Additional options pertaining to backups can be found in the [defaults file](defaults/main.yml).
