NetBackup™ Web UI Cloud Administrator's Guide

For PostgreSQL

  • Restoring security privileges is not supported.

  • During restore, you can use the - no-owner and - no-privileges options. After restore, the metadata captured at the time of backup is shown as the owner/ACL in the progress log restore activity on the web UI.

  • Restore does not fail if the owner or role does not exist on the destination.

  • Post restore, the database has the role associated with it, according to the credentials provided in NetBackup against the destination instance.

  • Users need to modify the ownership of databases post-restore.

  • Azure Postgres database restore from a single to a flexible server or vice versa is not supported because of the cloud provider's limitations.

  • The following characters are not supported in the database name in the restore workflow: `, @, \, [, ], !, #, %, ^, ., ,, &, *, (, ), <, >, ?, /, |, }, {, ~, :, ', ", ;, +, = and -.

  • Uppercase username is not supported for new users added after PostgreSQL server creation.

  • (RDS and Azure PostgreSQL only) SCRAM authentication configured on a database instance is not supported.

  • If full or differential incremental backups fail with temporary objects, then delete the temporary objects manually and run backup again.

  • If the database has RLS (Row-Level Security), you must grant the backup user the permission to bypass all RLS policies, using the following command:

    ALTER USER <backup_user> WITH BYPASSRLS;
