<br></div><div>The only procedure I've discovered to backup / restore layer styles is through QGIS desktop client (connect to the database hosting the styles, save them as local files, create a new project associated to the target database, apply the locally saved styles to layers and finally save them in the target database), but this is not affordable in an automatic backup / restore procedure.<br>
