Configuring a PostgreSQL Server Instance for an Azure Database

After you add the PostgreSQL agent to the Azure virtualization client, you can configure the instance endpoint. The VM instance must have access to the Azure service endpoints.

Procedure

1. From the CommCell Browser, expand Client Computers > client > PostgreSQL.

2. Right-click the agent, point to All Tasks > New PosgreSQL Instance.

   The PostgreSQL Create Instance dialog box appears.

3. On the General tab, make the following selections:

   1. From the Instance Name list, select the Azure database instance.

   2. In the Endpoint box, type the endpoint that you use to connect to the Azure PostgreSQL database.

      The endpoint includes the DNS names and the port number, for example, postgresqldb.example.eu-central-1.abc.Azure.com:5432.

   3. Click the Credential list, and then click Create New to add a new credential.

   4. In the Maintenance DB box, type the database that the PostgreSQL pgAdmin command connects to.

   5. If SSL is enabled on the cloud, select the Use SSL options check box, and then in the SSL CA file box, enter the SSL CA file path in the client computer.

   6. Select a storage policy.

4. Click OK.
