Standard usage for Slony. I've used it for dozens of upgrades in place
with a few seconds switch over time.  It's not as complex as it first
appears, but test on something other than production please.

David,

So initially i have physical replication configured, so to upgrade slave to 9.6 version i did converted master slave to logical replication and then try to upgrade the slave to 9.6. I am getting this error when i try to start the slave. Any idea?

In addition to above, Slony also an option for keeping master & slave on different versions which play a key role during upgrades for reducing downtime drastically.

Hello again,

can you execute pg_controldata command on both Master and Slave
and check the following properties :
Database cluster state
wal_level setting

Also, if I understand correctly, you want to establish logical replication between your 9.4 master
and your 9.6 slave but you don't explain how ? using pg_logical ?

Regards

Hello,

yes, before postgres version 10, you must use an extension such as pg_logical
to build logical replication between master and slave.

For pg_logical, see the following links to help you start :
https://www.2ndquadrant.com/en/resources/pglogical/pglogical-docs/
http://bonesmoses.org/2016/10/14/pg-phriday-perfectly-logical/

Hi,


I was using pg_basebackup to rebuild slave, so pglogical is not in-built in postgres and I have to install?


Thanks

Hello,

How did you create the slave ? with pg_basebackup or via rsync ?
In any case, the slave MUST have been built with a backup/rsync made AFTER the master have been restarted when you changed
wal_level to logical.

Note, that you did so far, set wal_level=logical, is just a prerequisite to use logical replication.
After that, you need a tool which will extract the changes in the WALs from the master and will replay them on the slave.

Such tool is pg_logical : https://www.2ndquadrant.com/en/resources/pglogical/

From Slave (9.6):


Database cluster state: shut down in recovery

wal_level setting: logical



From master (9.4) :


Database cluster state: in production

Current wal_level setting: logical



Quite frankly i couldn't find proper document on how to set logical replication in 9.4, i think i am using pg_logical. All i did was set wal_level to logical and add primary_slot_name in recovery.conf. Do i need to install pglogical extension? i couldn't find one for amazon linux.






Thanks,
Ram
