What is check_pgbackrest?
Monitoring pgBackRest helps ensure that your PostgreSQL backups are consistent, up-to-date, and free from any potential issues. By regularly checking your backups, you'll be able to maintain a reliable and efficient backup-restore process for your PostgreSQL database.
pgBackRest provides a built-in command called check which performs various checks to validate your repository and configuration settings. The command is executed as follows:
pgbackrest --stanza=<stanza_name> check
<stanza_name> should be replaced with the name of the stanza for which you want to verify the repository and configuration settings.
