When I manually run that command it works, although when I attempt to connect 
to the ‘postgres’ database on it, it complains it doesn’t exist.

To me it seems the initdb for the 13 instance did not complete successfully. Have you tried clearing /var/lib/pgsql/13/data and doing the init over again? If you do try it monitor the output carefully.


I can’t use the dump/restore method to upgrade this server as the data in 
question is fairly massive and in my testing it took 45 hours to complete.  Any 
help appreciated.
