Subject: Upgrade streaming replication and log-shipping standby servers
Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2020 17:46:19 +0700
Message-ID: <20200615104619.GA97072@admin.sibptus.ru> (raw)

Dear Colleagues,

When upgrading to a new major version, pg_upgrade documentation
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/pgupgrade.html#PGUPGRADE-STEP-REPLICAS
states that pg_upgrade can be used on a master server. After upgrading
the PostgreSQL version on standbys, however, one must either pull the
data from scratch with pg_basebackup, or run rsync from master to
standby.

Is running pg_upgrade on replicas not supported and why?
