Notes from UPDATING

These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING

2025-05-06

Affects: users of databases/postgresql* and other software using PostgreSQL to run

Author: kbowling@FreeBSD.org

Reason: 
  The default version of PostgreSQL has been switched from 16 to 17.
  The upgrade procedure can use up twice the space the databases
  currently needs. If you have a big amount of stored data take a
  closer look at the manpage of pg_upgrade for avoidance and/or
  speedup of the upgrade.

  The upgrade instructions consider a basic usage and do not match
  complex scenarios like replication, sharding, or similar.

  Upgrade instructions:

  First stop your PostgreSQL, create PostgreSQL-binaries and backup your data.
  If you have another Version of PostgreSQL installed, for example 16, your
  files are named according to this.

  # service postgresql stop
  # pkg create postgresql16-server postgresql16-contrib
  # mkdir /tmp/pg-upgrade
  # tar xf postgresql16-server-16.8.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
  # tar xf postgresql16-contrib-16.8.pkg -C /tmp/pg-upgrade
  # pkg delete -f databases/postgresql16-server databases/postgresql16-contrib databases/postgresql16-client

  Now update PostgreSQL:

    pkg user:
    # pkg install databases/postgresql17-server databases/postgresql17-contrib
    # pkg upgrade

    Portmaster users:
    # portmaster databases/postgresql17-server databases/postgresql17-contrib
    # portmaster -a

    Portupgrade users:
    # portinstall databases/postgresql17-server databases/postgresql17-contrib
    # portupgrade -a

  After installing the new PostgreSQL version you need to convert
  all your databases to new version:

  # su -l postgres -c "/usr/local/bin/initdb --encoding=utf-8 --lc-collate=C -D /var/db/postgres/data17 -U postgres"
  # su -l postgres -c "pg_upgrade -b /tmp/pg-upgrade/usr/local/bin/ -d /var/db/postgres/data16/ -B /usr/local/bin/ -D /var/db/postgres/data17/ -U postgres "

  Now the migration is finished. You can start PostgreSQL again with:

  # service postgresql start

  ATTENTION:
  1) If you use non-default initdb options, you have to adjust the initdb-command accordingly

  ATTENTION:
