That was about barman, in the barman group.  This is asking about pgbackrest...  :)

So: does pgbackrest have this ability which barman does not have? The "--db-include" option seems to indicate that you can restore a single db, but does indicate whether or not you can rename it.

Physical backup/restore operates on a whole cluster...

    Do you expect a typical restore command?

    I'm investigating barman and pgBackRest to replace our exitsing
    NetBackup system, so don't know what you mean by "typical restore
    command".

    Here are our typical use cases:

    1. If my barman backup server has full backups, diffs and WALs for
    database server MAIN_PG_SERVER, which hosts databases D1, D2 and D3,
    how much work is it to do a PITR restore of D2 to a *different* Pg server?

    2. Can I restore an older copy of database D2 to MAIN_PG_SERVER,
    *giving it a new name* (so that now there would be databases D1, D2,
    D3 *and D2_OLD*)?  That's pretty trivial on SQL Server, and something
    I've had to do before so the operations staff can research a problem.)

    Thanks
