Verify upgrades to PostgreSQL 11.X
The gitlab-ctl pg-upgrade
command uses the upstream pg_upgrade
command behind the scenes to upgrade the database files to work with a newer PostgreSQL version.
We need to verify that it is safe to upgrade from 9.6.X to 11.X using pg_upgrade
, as well as upgrading from 10.X to 11.X.
It should be safe to jump directly from 9.6.X to 11.X, but if not, we need to verify that we can step through 10.X.
Once we've verified here that manually upgraded databases are functional, we will handle automatic ugprades to PostgreSQL 11.X in separate issues.
