You should backup your database first with pg_dump,
then try upgrading with rpm -Fvh <PostgreSQL RPM
package>.  As for the column types and other things
that may have changed you will probably have to
perform your own validation that things still work as
expected.

Thanks.

Is it necessary to uninstall previous version of Postgres on my system to
upgrade with Postgres 7.2.3
Can any body give URL where  Postgres 7.2.3 RPMs available.

Regards,
Sreedhar
