Hi Obi,
Just to update you, we are not using the PGDG community that provides Postgres.
And the major difference between the PGDG community provided Postgres and RHEL provided Postgres is the binary files are installed in different location.
in PGDG Postgres it is installed under `/usr/pgsql-16/bin` whereas in RHEL Postgres it gets installed under `/usr/bin`.
hence we can't use the command you suggested.

Hi Sameer,
Please try with this command.
/usr/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/pgsql-15/bin/ -B /usr/pgsql-16/bin/ -d /pgData/pgsql/15/data -D /pgData/pgsql/16/data -c
If above command is not working check the below one.
/usr/pgsql-16/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/pgsql-15/bin/ -B /usr/pgsql-16/bin/ -d /pgData/pgsql/15/data -D /pgData/pgsql/16/data -c
Thanks & Regards

Hi Team,
We are trying to perform the Major version upgrade on RHEL 8 using RHEL-certified repo `rhel-8-for-x86_64-appstream-rpms` from PG 15.6 to PG 16.4 using `pg_upgrade` but we are facing the below issue.
As the binaries are getting upgraded in-place `/usr/bin` hence while performing pg_upgrade we are not getting the older binaries.
pg_upgrade command is as follows.
[2024-10-04 11:18:47] $ /usr/bin/pg_upgrade -b /usr/bin/ -B /usr/bin/ -d /pgData/pgsql/15/data -D /pgData/pgsql/16/data -c
[2024-10-04 11:19:19]
[2024-10-04 11:19:19] You must identify the directory where the old cluster binaries reside.
[2024-10-04 11:19:19] Please use the -b command-line option or the PGBINOLD environment variable.
[2024-10-04 11:19:19] Failure, exiting
