Forgot to add to previous post. As you are changing the major version 
you should go the Release Notes section for each major version(15-18) 
and read through the notes for the changes that may affect you. It is 
generally sufficient to look at just the initial release for each major 
version as that where the new/breaking features are called out. Ideally 
you would set up a test instance and verify that your code works in the 
Postgres major version you wish to migrate to.
