I have already loaded osm data into postgresql earlier. Now I want to update the database. I have downloaded the pbf file from geofabrik. How I can update the database without deleting the existing Tables?

If you have imported a planet or extract some time ago and have now downloaded a (much) newer planet or extract:
It does not really make sense to do any updating as I think calculating and applying the diff will not save you time. Just re-run osm2pgsql again and it will remove the tables and create new ones resulting in updated data.
If you want to keep your data updated continuously:
Download diff files provided by different providers (e.g. Geofabrik), see Planet.osm/diffs for more information. Then use e.g. Osmosis in combination with osm2pgsql --append. Switch2OSM with section "Updating" might also provide hints.

I have tried but it returns Processing: Node(82248k 663.3k/s) Way(4383k 8.56k/s) Relation(0 0.00/s)Killed Apr 27 '16 at 10:33

1So it did not read the relations and did not even reach the writing stage. Did it not read anything for a while and you stopped it or did it exit by itself? Could it be a memory issue? Which extract are you trying to import? Could you try with a smaller extract first? Apr 27 '16 at 12:04

WHat about updating using flat nodes files? I have not the temp tables in my database but I kept the flat nodes files. Do I need to download the entire PBF file again or just the diff file? Consider it is a fresh install.– Magno CApr 5 '17 at 11:17
