Hi list,
Thank you all for your inputs, I am trying pgbacrest with Enterprised DB. Locally pgbackrest works for EDB but when I am trying for remote repository I am facing an issue ( from the remote host to EDB server password less authentication part )
Trying to use a remote host as Repo Server I am facing the issue of passwordless authentication(Public key private key).
1. From the EDB server I added the user pgbackrest directory and generated ssh-keys and copied the id_rsa.pub to the Repo server (pgbackrest user's .ssh dir with necessary permissions) everything(passwordless auth) working to one side.
From the EDB Postgres Advanced Server nodes $ sudo -u enterprisedb ssh pgbackrest@backup-serverThis works from EDB server machine without any issue(password less auth works)
2 But from the reposerver
$sudo -u pgbackrest ssh enterprisedb@EDB_Server_IP unable to do password less auth( Its asking password for enterpridb@EDB_Server )
How to do the passwordless auth from the Repo server to the EDB server for the default "enterprisedb" user of EDB ? ( enterprisedb user doesn't have any home dir I mean /home/enterprisedb, so I am not sure where to create .ssh dir and authorized_keys for passwordless auth )
Any one who has already tackled this kindly guide me on how to achieve this .
Thank you,
Krishane

Is it possible to use PgBackrest with EnterpriseDB(EDB -16) for the backup and recovery process?
