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