Elevate CentOS 7->A8 upgrades postgresql from 9.2 to 10.0
Hi,
I’ve been evaluating elevate and would like to point out a problem with the current configuration.
Right now, if I have postgres and postgres-server (both at 9.2) installed, when I use elevate, I end up with 10.17. The problem is that some applications still depend on 9 in order to function.
AlmaLinux 8 provides postgresql 9.6 and IMO this would be a better choice when upgrading people between 7 and 8. To get to this in 8, you have to first run:
dnf enable module postgresql:9.6 then dnf install postgresql-server
If a user wants to move to 10 from 9.6, they can. They cannot move from 10 to 9.6 though.
Thanks, Todd Rinaldo
hi First of all, consider going up from 9.2 to 9.6 first in centos 7 or 8, (via replication), once you have already made that change, perform the update to the last in centos (remain in centos 8), and then migrate to almalinux. the only thing you need is space, for the replication
I'm just in a project to migrate from centos 7.X, to centos 8, and then switch to almalinux.
