This is on Postgresql 9.6, if it matters. Attached is a text file
showing the pgbackrest version, config, backup log and "pgbackrest info"
output.
I followed the instructions in
https://pgbackrest.org/user-guide.html#quickstart/configure-encryption,
and successfully ran these commands before the first encrypted backup,
but they aren't in the text file:
rm -r /Database/9.6/backups/pgbackrest
pgbackrest stanza-create --stanza=localhost
Have I misconfigured something?
If the cipher is configured per stanza then the info command must be run
per stanza, e.g.
pgbackrest --stanza=localhost info
If the cipher settings were in [global] this would work as expected, but
of course there may be valid reasons to set the cipher at the stanza
level. Essentially, if you run the info command without --stanza it has
no knowledge of stanza-level settings.
We've known about this internally for a while, but have never seen it
expressed in the field. If this is a blocker for you (i.e. you can't put
the cipher settings in [global]) then feel free to open a Gtihub issue
(https://github.com/pgbackrest/pgbackrest/issues) so it is on our radar.
