Thread: RHEL 7
I am currently running Version 9.3.10 of postgres with RHEL 6. I am going to upgrade my O/S soon to RHEL 7. Do I need to upgrade to version 9.4.x of postgres?

True, somewhere in RHEL 7 online guides it's stated that it's not recommended to use the migration procedure (so I wonder why they've included it).
