Hello,

The source database in the 12.11 server shows this:

$ psql -Ulbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u $DATABASE
psql (12.11)
Type "help" for help.

lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=>
lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=> \d
                              List of relations
 Schema |             Name              | Type  |           Owner            
--------+-------------------------------+-------+----------------------------
 dbo    | accession_index               | table | lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u
 dbo    | acq_bind                      | table | lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u
 ... 

I dumped this with pg_dump 

$ pg_dump --file=dmp.gz --compress=9 --dbname=$DATABASE

Created in the new server the database

$ createdb -U lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u -T template0 lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1

and the role for thw user with

CREATE ROLE lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u WITH SUPERUSER CREATEDB LOGIN PASSWORD 'xxxxxx' ;
CREATE ROLE

and loaded the dump with

$ gzip -dc dmp.gz | psql -U lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1

This all went fine. But when I now look into the database:

$ psql -Ulbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1_dbo_u lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1
psql (15.1)
Type "help" for help.

lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=#
lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=# \d
Did not find any relations.
lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=# \d dbo.accession_index
                        Table "dbo.accession_index"
      Column      |         Type          | Collation | Nullable | Default 
------------------+-----------------------+-----------+----------+---------
 iln              | smallint              |           | not null | 

lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=# select count(*) from counter;
ERROR:  relation "counter" does not exist
LINE 1: select count(*) from counter;
                             ^
lbs_lbsoclc01_dev_r1=# select count(*) from dbo.counter;
 count 
-------
    41

i.e. I have to specify the schema 'dbo' to access the tables.

What I am missing here in this move?
