Hi all.

We have a PostgreSQL server running in a Kubernetes environment, and are looking into how to back this up. We do not backup the Kubernetes environment and have not configured a service account, created a access node as described in the Kubernetes configuration guide https://documentation.commvault.com/11.44/software/configuration_for_kubernetes.html)

I found the Application-Aware Protection for Containerized PostgreSQL documentation (https://documentation.commvault.com/11.44/software/application_aware_protection_for_containerized_postgresql.html), can I use this to backup the PostgreSQL server running in Kubernetes without configuring backup for the Kubernetes environment first?

 

Thanks

Hi Anders,

Yes, you can configure this without having to configure K8s backups first.

For this solution, we run Commvault agent inside a sidecar container in the DB pod.

 

Thanks,
