Summary: RELNOTES - Better explanation of PostgreSQL upgrade Product: Fedora Documentation Version: devel Platform: All URL: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/DatabaseServers OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: normal Component: release-notes AssignedTo: relnotes@fedoraproject.org ReportedBy: nsoranzo@tiscali.it QAContact: kwade@redhat.com CC: kwade@redhat.com
Actually the text is:
"Fedora Core 4 provided version 8.0 of PostgreSQL. If you upgrade an existing Fedora system with a PostgreSQL database, you must upgrade the database to access the data."
To me it's not clear that you have to back up _before_ upgrading. I'd rather prefer:
"The internal data storage format changed in respect to the version provided in Fedora Core 4, PostgreSQL 8.0. Before upgrading an existing Fedora Core system with a PostgreSQL database, you must back up the data and then restore it after the upgrade."
