Backing Up a Database Group for PostgreSQL on Azure Database

You can perform a full backup operation of a Azure Database for PostgreSQL database group.

Procedure

  1. From the navigation pane, go to Protect > Databases.

    The database overview page appears.

  2. Click the Instances tab.

    The Instances page appears which displays the list of instances.

  3. Click an instance.

    The instance detail page appears.

  4. Click Database group tab.

    The Database groups page appears.

  5. From Actions column, click the ellipsis icon associated with a database group, and select Backup. Alternately, you can select Backup from the top right corner of the page.

    The Backup options dialog box appears.

  6. Under Backup level, select Full.

  7. Click Submit.

Note

  • If the database part of a database group (other than default) is renamed or removed, the backup content for database group needs to be updated manually. The old database will not be removed automatically.

  • By default, backup operations using DumpBased backup set do not include information about roles. This is because pg_dump utility that is used to perform DumpBased backup operation does not back up roles information. To save this information using the pg_dumpall utility, enable backups for global objects in PostgreSQL databases.
