=head1 NAME
pg_upgradecluster - upgrade an existing PostgreSQL cluster to a new major version.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<pg_upgradecluster> [B<-v> I<newversion>] I<version> I<name> [I<newdatadir>]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<pg_upgradecluster> upgrades an existing PostgreSQL server cluster (i. e. a
collection of databases served by a B<postmaster> instance) to a new version
specified by I<newversion> (default: latest available version). The
configuration files of the old version are copied to the new cluster.
The cluster of the old version will be configured to use a previously unused
port since the upgraded one will use the original port. The old cluster is not
automatically removed. After upgrading, please verify that the new cluster
indeed works as expected; if so, you should remove the old cluster with
L<pg_dropcluster(8)>. Please note that the old cluster is set to "manual"
startup mode, in order to avoid inadvertently changing it; this means that it
will not be started automatically on system boot, and you have to use
L<pg_ctlcluster(8)> to start/stop it. See section "STARTUP CONTROL" in
L<pg_createcluster(8)> for details.
The I<newdatadir> argument can be used to specify a non-default data directory
of the upgraded cluster. It is passed to B<pg_createcluster>. If not specified,
this defaults to /var/lib/postgresql/I<version>/I<name>.
Please note that this program cannot upgrade clusters which use tablespaces. If
you use those, you have to upgrade manually.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-v> I<newversion>
Set the version to upgrade to (default: latest available).
=item B<--logfile> I<filel>
Set a custom log file path for the upgraded database cluster.
=item B<--locale=>I<locale>
Set the default locale for the upgraded database cluster. If this option is not
specified, the locale is inherited from the old cluster.
=item B<--lc-collate=>I<locale>
=item B<--lc-ctype=>I<locale>
=item B<--lc-messages=>I<locale>
=item B<--lc-monetary=>I<locale>
=item B<--lc-numeric=>I<locale>
=item B<--lc-time=>I<locale>
Like B<--locale>, but only sets the locale in the specified category.
=back
=head1 HOOK SCRIPTS
Some PostgreSQL extensions like PostGIS need metadata in auxiliary tables which
must not be upgraded from the old version, but rather initialized for the new
version before copying the table data. For this purpose, extensions (as well as
administrators, of course) can drop upgrade hook scripts into
C</etc/postgresql-common/pg_upgradecluster.d/>. Script file names must consist
entirely of upper and lower case letters, digits, underscores, and hyphens; in
particular, dots (i. e. file extensions) are not allowed.
Scripts in that directory will be called with the following arguments:
<old version> <cluster name> <new version> <phase>
Phases:
=over
=item B<init>
A virgin cluster of version I<new version> has been created, i. e. this new
cluster will already have B<template1>, but no user databases. Please note that
you should not create tables in this phase, since they will be overwritten by
the dump/restore operation.
=item B<finish>
All data from the old version cluster has been dumped/reloaded into the new
one. The old cluster still exists.
=back
The scripts are called as the user who owns the database.
