Hi, I consider myself poor, inexperienced postgres administrator (which is not really my job, but we cannot afford a dba), but I moved from 8.2.3 to 8.3.0 about a month ago. It took some planning and reading, but with the preparation I did, it went pretty smooth. Just my 2 bits as a first- hand experience.
Also in a recent linux magazine (I don't know if that's your platform or not, but...) there was this article: http://www.linux-mag.com/id/5679 which may be a good source of information. Hope this helps. Regards, Tena Sakai [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Ray Stell Sent: Sat 4/12/2008 1:56 PM To: Kranti K K Parisa?
