Hello,
I am trying to setup barman for my test environment with the following steps
but I m not able to start the backup. Please advice !
Postgres 11.2 streaming replication on docker container , Centos
Server A : pg1 (primary)
Server B : pg2 (Standby)
I am using pg2 as a Barman server. Barman 2.8 is installed on pg2
Also I have installed " yum install barman-cli-2.8-1.el6.noarch.rpm" on pg1
(postgres server) for 'barman-wal-archive.
@pg1
1 . Connect on the server pgsql and log into the postgres account:
sudo -i -u postgres
2 . createuser --interactive -P barman
3 . createuser barman
4 . Edit postgresql.conf , for
listen_addresses = '*' and sudo service postgresql restart
wal_level = replica
archive_mode = on
archive_command = 'barman-wal-archive pg2 pgsql %p'
5. host all all pg2/32 trust
@pg2 (Barman Server)
1 . switch to user barman and generate the keys: ssh-keygen -t rsa
2 . Copy the key to the user account postgres on pgsql: ssh-copy-id
postgres@pg1
3 . Barman also requires access to the postgres account on the server pg2. Copy
the key into the directory of the postgres user and test the connection:
ssh-copy-id postgres@localhost
ssh postgres@localhost -C true
4 . Once this is done, log in as postgres user on pg1and generate an SSH key:
ssh-keygen -t rsa
5 . Copy the generated key to the list of authorized keys of the user barman on
pg2: ssh-copy-id barman@pg2
6 . Test the connection to the server:
@barmaner server /etc/barman.d/pgsql.conf
[test]
