Hi all,

just 2 short questions:

1. During Postgres migration from 9.3 -> 13.0 via pg_dump we'll also jump from bucardo 5.4 to 5.6. Could we keep the table structure, triggers etc. during the upgrade or do we have to make a fresh bucardo install?

2. Log level "normal" doesn't show us any activity within the bucardo log; on "verbose" it is very talkative. At bucardo 5.4 we ran on "normal" and got log entries each time, a table content was changed. Is there an adequate option at bucardo 5.6?

Common information:

We've already tested a mixed operation with bucardo 5.6 with PG 9.3 on one hand and PG 13 on the other side without any issues.Also installation and setup of 5.6 upon a fresh database server was very easy and successful; many thanks at this point!

Andreas

Hi David,

we're are using Bucardo for 8 years in multi-master configuration. Actually, we're thinking of giving pg_upgrade a try but be ready for a complete re-install using pg_dump. But first we've to do some preparation including a complete setup with staging server - we'll see.

If it is interesting for other reading this mailing list I will keep you updated.

Thanks and all the best,
Andreas

Hi all,

we'd like to upgrade our 9.3 postgres server up to version 13.0. Should we 
expect any problems with bucardo?

Thank you in advance,

Hi Andreas,

There are no known issues for that approach, assuming you have Primary Keys on 
all tables or are ok setting up fullcopy syncs for the ones that don’t.

Just out of curiosity, are you already using Bucardo, and have you looked at other 
options for database upgrades (like pg_upgrade)?  Not to say this is the wrong 
tool, but if it’s a self-hosted -> self-hosted upgrade I’d definitely look at 
pg_upgrade first unless there were strict uptime requirements that even a few 
minutes of downtime are unacceptable.

Best,

David
