Hi David,

thanks for you're quick answer.
I'am using postgres 12 and also tested with 13. Both inside the official 
(debian based) docker hub hosted container.

After you're answer I did a few investigations. If I insert data with a single 
insert, everything is working like expected

INSERT INTO public.ab VALUES (1, DEFAULT);

this changes if I do multiple inserts in one statement:

INSERT INTO public.ab VALUES (1, DEFAULT), (2, DEFAULT);
ERROR:  cannot insert into column "b"
DETAIL:  Column "b" is a generated column.

Is this a bug or a feature?

In my specific backup case I exported the data with the flags: 
--column-inserts, --inserts and --rows-per-insert=1000. Due to the latter I ran 
into the behaviour described obove.
If I export the data with the default copy statement, no problems occur.

Greetings
