Hello @saurabhgore65
It seems this is more of a common issue with Barman and you might do better opening a support ticket with them directly https://github.com/EnterpriseDB/barman
I would be interested to see what the output of “barman check postgres-serve” is.

Hello, there
Backups are handled automatically and included to you at no additional fee. Full backups are taken every day and write-ahead-logs are maintained to allow you to restore to any point in time during the retention period.
You an check our official Docs for the Managed PosfreSQL Database here:

And check the tutorial on how to restore a PostgreSQL cluster from Backups:
https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/databases/postgresql/how-to/restore-from-backups/
You can also manually back up your databases using the dokku-postgres plugin as well. You can check this article as well:

With this command you can manually backup PostgreSQL Database to DigitalOcean Spaces:
- dokku postgres:backup dbname bucketname
Hope this helps!
