For configuring External Postgres database,

1. Go to "C:\Program Files(x86)\Cloud Volumes\Manager\config” folder

2. Open database.yml in notepad (Make sure to backup this file)

3. Under Production section add the below lines and replace including angled braces with the actual content.

production:

adapter: postgresql 

host: < host >                                 # Remote Postgres database IP Address/ Hostname

port: < port >                                  # Port 

database: < database name >       # Database Name 

username: < user_name >             # User Name 

password: '< password >'               # Password

The path of the database.yml file in AV 3.0 is /usr/local/av-manager/config/database.yml
