Hi Team,

 

We have a question related to security patches.

 

Following is our server specification:-

OS-RedHat 7

Postgres – 9.3 (planning to upgrade to 11.2) and 11.2

 

We have installed postgres using source code and moved postgres data, config and share default install directories to custom directories/mount points. If there is any security patch that need to apply on postgres database in future, 1. Would security patch available in form of source code/zip file OR do we have to apply it using rpm? 2. If rpm, would it be possible to install security patch on postgres custom directories through RPM? 3. Any caveat that we need to aware about?

 

Any help here would be really appreciated.

 

Regards,

Prashant
