Backup & Restore (from 14000) - Behavior changes

Backup & Restore (from 14000) - Behavior changes

Backup:


POSTGRES & MSSQL:

-> When taking a backup using the command backUpData.bat/backUpData.sh the backup will be created in the EZIP format. This is the native model of PGSQL / SQL.

-> When taking a backup using the command backUpDataOld.bat/backUpDataOld.sh the backup will be created in the .DATA format

-> If it is taken directly in the MSSQL server then the backup will be in BAK format.


Restore:

Postgres:

-> You can restore the Postgres EZIP backup directly using the command restoredata.bat/restoredata.sh into any Postgres installation. (Windows - linux)

-> You can also restore the Postgres DATA backup directly using the command restoredata.bat/restoredata.sh into any  installation. (Windows - linux)

-> You cannot restore the BAK format MSSQL backup into postgres server


MSSQL:

-> If it is a MSSQL EZIP backup then it can only be restored into the same MSSQL server and cannot be restored into a different MSSQL server. 

-> If it is a MSSQL DATA backup(.data format) then it can be restored into different MSSQL.

-> It is a MSSQL BAK backup then it can be restored into any MSSQL server

In Schedule backup (EZIP format), Cross OS or Cross DB wont restore.

ie. We cannot take a backup from PGSQL and cannot restore in MSSQL. (viceversa)
Also we cannot take a backup from Windows - PGSQL installation and cannot restore in Linux PGSQL installation(viceversa) As its native dump methodology , it wont.

Manual EZIP format :

We can take ezip format by executing backupDB.bat - We can take back up from Windows PGSQL and restore in Linux PGSQL. (vice versa). - Its supported
