Suggest edits

You can upgrade to a patch release with a simple in place upgrade. A minor release upgrade, such as upgrading from 1.15 to 1.16, requires additional steps.

Upgrading a minor release

To upgrade to a new minor release:

  1. Install the new version of EDB PgBouncer. For instructions, see Installing.

  2. If you have any custom configurations in the edb-pgbouncer.ini and userlist.txt files for the previously installed version, copy them from the versions of those files where the customization were made and paste them to the corresponding files for the release you just installed.

  3. Stop the previous version.

  4. Start and enable the new version.

  5. Test the new version to make sure it's running.

  6. After successfully deploying the new version, remove the previous version with the following command: 

    <package-manager> remove edb-pgbouncer<xx>

    Where:

    • <package-manager> is the package manager used with your operating system:

      Package managerOperating system
      dnfRHEL 8 or later and derivatives
      yumRHEL 7 and derivatives, CentOS 7
      zypperSLES
      apt-getDebian and derivatives

    • <xx> is the previous version.
