Description of problem: Some users would like to restore from a backup of an old install of Satellite Server onto a freshly installed Satellite Server, not just a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server. Actual results: Postgres fail while restoring Expected results: No Postgres fail while restoring Additional info: https://access.redhat.com/discussions/3401451 Bug 1564435 - Postgres fail while restoring Thank you
Hello This bug was incorrectly titled: The supported procedure was and is restoring onto a new install of Satellite, not just a RHEL server. But no additonal configuration should be made. The guide was made a bit more explicit on this point[1] If you follow the procedures in the guides for making back ups and restoring from those backs, we believe they work. Where you want to move a move a Satellite from one server to another, you should use the Satellite clone procedures[2]. The case in comment 0 appears to fit that use case for clone, not the use case of the restore script.
