                SOURCE_URL SERVER_NAME BACKUP_ID RECOVERY_DESTINATION

Description

Use this script to restore a backup directly from cloud storage that was created with the barman-cloud-backup command. Additionally, this script can prepare for recovery from a snapshot backup by verifying that attached disks were cloned from the correct snapshots and by downloading the backup label from object storage.

This command does not automatically prepare Postgres for recovery. You must manually manage any PITR options, custom restore_command values, signal files, or required WAL files to ensure Postgres starts, either manually or using external tools.

NOTE:

Parameters

SERVER_NAME

Name of the server that holds the backup to be restored.

SOURCE_URL

URL of the cloud source, such as a bucket in AWS S3. For example: s3://bucket/path/to/folder.

BACKUP_ID

The ID of the backup to be restored. You can use a shortcut instead of the backup ID. Besides that, you can use auto to have Barman automatically find the most suitable backup for the restore operation.

RECOVERY_DESTINATION

The path to a directory for recovery.

-V / --version

Show version and exit.

--help

show this help message and exit.

-v / --verbose

Increase output verbosity (e.g., -vv is more than -v).

-q / --quiet

Decrease output verbosity (e.g., -qq is less than -q).

-t / --test

Test cloud connectivity and exit.

--cloud-provider

The cloud provider to use as a storage backend.

Allowed options are:

• aws-s3.
• azure-blob-storage.
• google-cloud-storage.

--snapshot-recovery-instance

Instance where the disks recovered from the snapshots are attached.

--tablespace

Tablespace relocation rule.

--target-lsn

The recovery target lsn, e.g., 3/64000000.

--target-time

The recovery target timestamp with or without timezone, in the format %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.

--target-tli

The recovery target timeline.

Extra options for the AWS cloud provider

--endpoint-url

Override default S3 endpoint URL with the given one.

-P / --aws-profile

Profile name (e.g. INI section in AWS credentials file).

--profile (deprecated)

Profile name (e.g. INI section in AWS credentials file) — replaced by --aws-profile.

--read-timeout

The time in seconds until a timeout is raised when waiting to read from a connection (defaults to 60 seconds).

--aws-region

The name of the AWS region containing the EC2 VM and storage volumes defined by the --snapshot-instance and --snapshot-disk arguments.

Extra options for the Azure cloud provider

--azure-credential / --credential

Optionally specify the type of credential to use when authenticating with Azure. If omitted then Azure Blob Storage credentials will be obtained from the environment and the default Azure authentication flow will be used for authenticating with all other Azure services. If no credentials can be found in the environment then the default Azure authentication flow will also be used for Azure Blob Storage.

Allowed options are:

• azure-cli.
• managed-identity.
• default.

--azure-resource-group

The name of the Azure resource group to which the compute instance and disks defined by the --snapshot-instance and --snapshot-disk arguments belong.

Extra options for GCP cloud provider

--gcp-zone

Zone of the disks from which snapshots should be taken.

--snapshot-recovery-zone (deprecated)

Zone containing the instance and disks for the snapshot recovery — replaced by --gcp-zone.
