Re: incompatibilities with newer Postgresql
I am assuming you mean something like: CREATE FUNCTION pg_stop_backup ( ) RETURNS TABLE ( lsn pg_lsn, labelfile text, spcmapfile text ) AS 'pg_backup_stop' LANGUAGE internal STRICT; CREATE FUNCTION pg_start_backup(label text) RETURNS pg_lsn AS 'pg_backup_start' LANGUAGE internal STRICT; On 12/21/23 10:07, Ingo Schaefer wrote: Hello Trever, you may define aliases for this functions with the "old" name like described here: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/xfunc-internal.html HTH, Ingo Am 21.

Using user-tar from the templates (maybe only Fedora supplied, I don't know) as the base for my backup, things work fine and tar runs as root.

kerberos and Amanda
For technical reasons, I have a set of hosts I must backup. They are in different kerberos realms. The realms cannot and do not trust each other (hopefully the technical reasons for this will be solved someday). Can krb5keytab and krb5principal be defined in a dumptype or some other way so that I can have them all defined in one amanda.conf? I need to fit as many hosts on each tape as possible, so I cannot have different dump sets (at least if I understand the documentation correctly, I am new to amanda).
