You can back up information about global objects (such as roles) in a PostgreSQL database. To back up global objects, the Commvault software uses the pg_dumpall
utility with -c
and -s
options.
It is supported only for PostgreSQL agents with indexing enabled. For PostgreSQL agents, this is enabled by default for newly installed clients in Feature Release 11.30 and more recent versions.
