Hello everyone, i moved from an older Docker based setup into a new K8S one. After following the Immich chart docs I used a cloudnative-vectorchord image for the CNPG database cluster and it seems that any way of restoring my previous backup fails because the vector extension is not installed. I don't know how I should approach this

The immich chart has version v0.10.3 and the server image is at version v2.5.2. The CNPG cluster chart is at version v0.5.0.
The backup is from this postgres image: docker.io/tensorchord/pgvecto-rs:pg14-v0.2.0@sha256:90724186f0a3517cf6914295b5ab410db9ce23190a2d9d0b9dd6463e3fa298f0

How are you restoring?

lethal pendant
#

I tried by loading the backup from the administration section in the web app, and also directly by copying the file into the database pod via psql

#

When I restored via the administration section, the assets were not visible even after changing the uuid of the user to match the new one

#

Neither of those are likely to work properly for CNPG
