Thread: upgrade

Hello all

I was just wondering if anyone could tell me if there is any seamless
way to upgrade from 7.4 to 8.1 without performing a full dump/restore.

Thanks

If you need to minimize down time, there are ways to use Slony to do that.
There is not a way to just update the data files directly.
