Subject: Upgrading with WALs

Message-ID: <488F85BA.7030702@noaa.gov> (raw)
As I mentioned earlier, we are doing major upgrades to our database
servers from 8.1.3 which necessitates the use of pg_dumpall. But what
do we do with the WALs? Should we delete them? Or should we leave them
there, and the new version of PostgreSQL will pick up where they left
off? Should we turn off WAL archiving while rebuilding the database
with the pg_dumpall output?
Thanks again.
Chris
