Hello @Meera, 

Thanks for the fast respond. I'll try to set it up tomorrow and report back if everything worked.

Kind Regards

Thomas

Hello @Meera, 

We tried to set up the whole thing today. The backup can be started, but it does not continue and gets stuck in the "Running" status. I have attached a few logs here, maybe someone can help us. 

Kind Regards

Thomas

Hello,

Going by logs, seems like replication is lagging behind a lot. Backup process only continues when Standby is up-to-date but here it seems we keep waiting for a long time for Standby to catch up.

Can you please address the Replication to Standby and retry backup?

Thanks,

Hello @Punit Koujalgi, 

Thank you for pointing this out. Our database administrators were able to fix the problem now. The reason was that the two nodes were not in sync. 

Kind Regards

Thomas
