To create an Azure File share backup using the console, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-files?tabs=backup-center for instructions. Alternatively, you can also refer to Azure CLI version guide / https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-afs-cli for instructions.
The section below contains an example of how to run create a backup vault, follow by enabling Azure File share backup protection and perform an on-demand backup job using the command line. The snapshot will in this case be stored under the default backup vault.

If restoring becomes necessary, you can restore the recovery point into Azure Blob Storage and use DB native tools pg_restore to restore data as a new PostgreSQL flexible server, see Azure guide https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/restore-azure-database-postgresql-flex for more information.
To restore EFSAzure File share, follow the instructions in https://docslearn.aws.amazonmicrosoft.com/awsen-backupus/latestazure/devguidebackup/restore-resource.html and afs?tabs=full-share-recovery / https://repostlearn.microsoft.awscom/knowledgeen-centerus/azure/aws-backup-/restore-efs-file-systemafs-cli.If you want
The section below contains an example of how to restore the backup into a new file system, the EFS mount target needs to be manually re-configured to allow access from the cluster, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/efs/latest/ug/manage-fs-access.html#manage-fs-access-create-delete-mount-targets for more information. If you are using access points, you need to configure access point for the new file system after the restore is done.
The section below contains an example of how to restore the EFS backup using the command line. In this example the volume mount is using access point path /uepe, and the snapshot is stored under default vault, and then the backup is restored as a new file system. If this is not how you have set it up, or if you wish to restore backup to the existing EFS instance, you need to adjust accordingly.
