Dear PostgreSQL Community,

I am currently planning a major upgrade of our PostgreSQL environment to
the latest stable version and would appreciate your guidance on the best
approach.

Our current setup consists of a high-availability cluster managed by
Pacemaker on a Linux operating system, configured in a master–slave
(primary–standby) architecture. Given the critical nature of this
environment, we want to ensure the upgrade is performed with minimal
downtime and without compromising data integrity or cluster stability.

I would be grateful if the community could share insights or best practices
on the following:

-

Recommended upgrade strategy (in-place upgrade vs. logical replication
vs. dump/restore) for a Pacemaker-managed HA cluster
-

Handling failover and cluster resources during the upgrade process
-

Any precautions or common pitfalls specific to Pacemaker-based
PostgreSQL clusters
-

Suggested sequence of steps to ensure a smooth and safe transition

*Details :*
Current version of PostgreSQL is *14.6 *
OS: Linux
HA :Pacemaker Based
Master -Slave --Setup

If anyone has experience performing a similar upgrade or can point me to
relevant documentation or case studies, that would be extremely helpful.

Thank you in advance for your support.
