I'll assume there are two hosts:
- db7, running 7.4.2, on port 5432, and
- db8, running 8.0.3 on port 5432.
The simplest method would be thus:
- Stop the applications access
If they are both up and running and reachable, then you likely just want to do
something as simple as:
pg_dumpall -h | psql -h template1
That's assuming you want to move all the DBs on the first server to the
second.
NOTE: pg_dumpall cannot dump large objects. If you have these, you'll ha

Hmmm, how do you use 7.4 utilities against a 7.3 DB?
pg_dump can dump from prior-release DBs (back to 7.0 at the moment).
Just point it at the older DB's port.

In my opinion, the only thing you need to change is the name of the
superuser in your dump file.
