[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk Postgres database

[William Hongach]

Hi,

You can back up the database using:

db-control online-backup $filename

And this Perl script should pull in the credentials that Robert referenced in your /etc/rhn/rhn.conf file.  There should be no need to log into the postgres database manually.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk Postgres database

I was looking at instructions for upgrading our spacewalk 2.7 instance and the instructions stressed backing up the database.  Problem is when I installed spacewalk I let it install itself and it created the database with no input from me.  So I don’t know what user I could login as to do backups.  Does anyone know if this automated install uses a generic username/password?  I followed the how to install page on github to let spacewalk setup Postgres.
