NetVault Plug-in for PostgreSQL 12.3.1 - User Guide

Introducing NetVault Backup Plug-in for PostgreSQL Installing and removing the plug-in Configuring the plug-in Backing up data Restoring data Troubleshooting

Restoring configuration files

When restoring configuration files, you do not have to set any restore options — unless you are restoring to a different cluster or server; for more information, see Restoring data to a different database cluster. The plug-in does not let you select individual configuration files for restoration.

1
Select the Configuration Files node from the backup saveset by following the instructions outlined in Selecting data for a restore.
2
Set the Restore Options by following the instructions outlined in Setting restore options.

Renaming a database during restore

Renaming a database can be useful if you do not want to overwrite the existing version and want to create a copy of the database.

1
In the Navigation pane, click Create Restore Job, select Plug‑in for PostgreSQL from the Plugin Type list, select the applicable saveset, and click Next.
2
On the Create Selection Set page, click the database that you want to rename, and select Rename from the context menu.
3
In the Rename/Relocate dialog box, enter the new name in the Rename to box.
IMPORTANT: If the cluster is configured to use UTF-8 encoding at initdb, you cannot use a name that contains non-ASCII characters.

Restoring data to a different database cluster

You can restore a database to a different database cluster running on the database server. The following topics outline the procedure for performing this type of a restore.

Before initiating this type of restore, verify that the following prerequisites are met:

Same version of PostgreSQL installed: The PostgreSQL version must be same as the version running on the existing database server.
Database cluster exists on the PostgreSQL Server: A database cluster must exist on the PostgreSQL Server and this cluster must be added to the plug-in. To add the cluster, see Adding a database cluster.

Set the Restore Options by following the instructions outlined in Setting restore options and completing the following parameter:

Restoring to a database cluster on an alternate server

You can restore a database cluster to a different PostgreSQL Server. Before initiating this type of restore, verify that the following prerequisites are met on the new restore target:

Same OS: The OS running on the target system must be same as the source system.
Same version of PostgreSQL installed: The PostgreSQL version must be same as the version running on the existing database server.
NetVault Backup software and Plug‑in for PostgreSQL installed: The same version of NetVault Backup software and the plug-in must be installed and configured on the new restore target.
Client added to the NetVault Backup Server: The target machine must be added to the NetVault Backup Server through the NetVault Backup WebUI.
Database cluster exists on the new restore target: A database cluster must exist on the new restore target and the cluster must be added to the plug-in. To add the cluster, see Adding a database cluster.
2
Set the Restore Options by following the instructions outlined in Setting restore options.
3
To save the settings, click Ok, and then click Next.
4
In Job Name, specify a name for the job if you do not want to use the default setting.
5
In the Target Client list, select the new restore target.
TIP: You can also click Choose, and then locate and select the applicable client in the Choose the Target Client dialog box.
6
Use the Schedule and Advanced Options lists to configure any additional required options.
7
Click Save or Save & Submit, whichever is applicable.
