One of our admins did me a favor and upgraded my build server ahead of schedule. So I can both test our current
PostgreSQLversion as well as rebuild it if necessary.
I can't test all of our data. That'd take quite a few months or more. I just can try to identify some crucial databases
andcolumns. When those tests are done, I can only pray and hope for the best.
I already expressed the idea of changing all locales to ICU. The problem there is that I'd have to create new instances
andthen move each database individually. I wish I could convert already running databases… This also takes time. Still,
Ithink I'm going to try this route. It's always a gamble if reindexing is needed or not with any glibc change.
Cheers,
Paul
