Hi @RockLala,

 

Is this topic about ThingWorx Analytics?  If yes, please ignore my comment below.

I have just taken a cold backup of Postgresql database and restored it back. I logged into ThingWorx and reviewed some of Mashup. I spotted no cosmetic changes in those Mashup entities, as far as I could check.

I used tar command and backed up "/ThingworxPostgresqlStorage" and "/var/lib/postgresql/9.x/" directories.

 

Is this how you took your backup or did you take it differently, like by using copy command?
