Hi,
we are considering changing the PostgreSQL platform from SUSE SLE to Red Hat.
To keep service interruptions as short as possible, the idea is to set up a
streaming replication from the SUSE server to be replaced to a temporary Red
Hat server and then replace that SUSE server with the newly setup Red Hat
server.
What versions of each?
My idea is to set up a streaming replication for this. But this of course only
works if the data files would be binary compatible.
Unless you use logical replication.
So, I wonder, if this is possible. We have a lot of databases, some of them
need to be highly available and some are large too.
Are there any obstacles that definitely make that a no-go? Do I risk
corruption? It's both Linux, just a different distribution.
Cheers,
Paul
