What guidance is needed? Even for us, where firewalls block our servers
from https://download.postgresql.org, it's as simple as downloading the
relevant RPM files *once* (and that done with a PowerShell script), then
patching thusly:
WinScp PG16.4_RHEL8 dir to each server, and on each server
$ sudo -iu postgres pg_ctl stop -mfast -wt9999 -D /path/to/data
$ sudo yum install PG16.4_RHEL8/*rpm
$ sudo -iu postgres pg_ctl start -wt9999 -D /path/to/data
Those three sudo commands take, at most, three minutes.
