Move configuration files with pg_upgrade

От

Hello, 

I did Postgresql upgrade from v10 to v12 using pg_upgrade (on Linux Ubuntu server). 
Of course i wanted settings in pg_hba.conf and postgresql.conf to keep, but after the upgrade there were new configuration files and I moved it manually. 

Is it possible somehow to migrate these old 
configuration files with pg_upgrade or it shall be done manually? 

Cheers, 
Tanja

Did you use the packages from the PGDG server or from Ubuntu?

I recently did an upgrade from 9.6 to 12 on a Debian system (using the
PGDG packages - I think they should be the same for Debian and Ubuntu)
and pg_uprade migrated the existing configuration without problems.
So that's not a general problem - did you get any error messages or
warnings during the upgrade?

That is documented:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/pgupgrade.html

"
Restore pg_hba.conf

If you modified pg_hba.conf, restore its original settings. It might 
also be necessary to adjust other configuration files in the new cluster 
to match the old cluster, e.g. postgresql.conf.
"

The new version's conf files  will probably have new settings available 
so this is something that should be reviewed before moving over. One way 
to deal with this is include file(s):

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/config-setting.html#CONFIG-INCLUDES

Using them you create the settings you want to manage in the include 
file. Then copy that over and set the include 'some_file' in the new 
postgresql.conf and you are good.

Yes, the community instructions require you to reconfigure the new
server to match the old one.  Some packagers who automate pg_upgrade
might do that configuration migration automatically.
