NAME

barman-verify-backup - Barman Sub-Commands

SYNOPSIS

verify-backup


    [ { -h | --help } ]


    SERVER_NAME BACKUP_ID

DESCRIPTION

Runs pg_verifybackup on a backup manifest file (available since Postgres version 13). For rsync backups, it can be used after creating a manifest file using the generate-manifest command. Requires pg_verifybackup to be installed on the backup server. You can use a shortcut instead of BACKUP_ID.

PARAMETERS

SERVER_NAME: Name of the server in barman node
BACKUP_ID: Id of the backup in barman catalog.
-h / --help: Show a help message and exit. Provides information about command usage.

SHORTCUTS

For some commands, instead of using the timestamp backup ID, you can use the following shortcuts or aliases to identify a backup for a given server:

Shortcut	Description
first/oldest	Oldest available backup for the server, in chronological order.
last/latest	Most recent available backup for the server, in chronological order.
last-full/latest-full	Most recent full backup taken with methods rsync or postgres.
last-failed	Most recent backup that failed, in chronological order.
