Release date: 2018-08-14
This release is based on PostgreSQL 9.5.14 and Postgres Pro Standard 9.5.13.1. All improvements inherited from PostgreSQL 9.5.14 are listed in PostgreSQL 9.5.14 Release Notes.
Major enhancements over Postgres Pro Standard 9.5.13.1 include:
The pg_variables module now
supports transactional variables. (See Section F.44.)
The auto_explain can now display planning time.
Postgres Pro Standard version for Windows has been improved:
Lifted an implicit restriction on the number of simultaneously open files for each server subprocess.
Depending on your current installation, the upgrade procedure will differ.
If you are running Postgres Pro 9.5.13.1,
it is enough to install the 9.5.14.1 version into the same directory.
For earlier Postgres Pro versions,
pgpro_upgrade script is required to complete the upgrade:
If you are upgrading your installation from a binary package,
and your database is in the default location,
pgpro_upgrade is run automatically,
unless you are prompted to run it manually.
If you compiled Postgres Pro from source code or created
your database in a non-default location, you must run
pgpro_upgrade script manually.
Before launching pgpro_upgrade manually,
you must stop the postgres service.
The script must be run on behalf of the user owning the
database (typically postgres). Running pgpro_upgrade
as root will result in an error.
To migrate to this version from vanilla PostgreSQL, perform a dump/restore using pg_dumpall.
