System credentials:: Confirm you have the required system credentials when working with a local database or a remote database.
On local systems, you might need `root` or `sudo` access, depending on how credentials are set up.
On remote systems, you might need different credentials to grant you access to the remote system you are trying to backup or restore.

====
The {PlatformNameShort} database backups are staged on each node at `/var/backups/automation-platform` through the variable `backup_dir`. You might need to mount a new volume to `/var/backups` or change the staging location with the variable `backup_dir` to prevent issues with disk space before running the `./setup.sh -b` script.
====

Version:: You must always use the most recent minor version of a release to backup or restore your {PlatformNameShort} installation version.
For example, if the current platform version you are on is 2.0.x, only use the latest 2.0 installer.

* If you have installed Ansible-core manually, the {PlatformNameShort} installation setup.sh script detects that Ansible has been installed and does not attempt to reinstall it.
