# Enabling Backups for Global Objects in Amazon RDS for PostgreSQL Databases

You can back up global objects, such as roles, in a PostgreSQL database. To back up global objects, the Commvault software uses the `pg_dumpall` utility with the `-c, -g, --no-role-passwords,` and `-s` options.

## Procedure

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

   The database Overview page appears.

2. On the Instances tab, click the instance.

   The instance Overview page appears.

3. In the DumpBasedBackupSet details section, click Edit.

   The Edit PostgreSQL Backup set dialog box appears.

4. Select the Back up global objects check box.

5. Click Save.
