Hi. So, I installed Rancher Backup from the catalog.  
Is there some place I could create tickets?  
It appears that the script assumes one database per engine, with the database being specified in the environment. I think it should fail gracefully if that is the case and also run `psql --list` to enumerate active databases and back them up.

Apologies if this is the wrong place.
