Release Date: 2022-11-18
This is expected to be the last Postgres Pro Standard release in the 10 series. Users are encouraged to update to a newer Postgres Pro Standard major version soon.
This release is based on PostgreSQL 10.23 and Postgres Pro Standard 10.22.1. All changes inherited from PostgreSQL 10.23 are listed in PostgreSQL 10.23 Release Notes. Other major changes and enhancements are as follows:
Upgraded mamonsu to version 3.5.2, which provides new features and bugfixes. Notable changes are as follows:
Added autovacuum utilization metrics.
Added Zabbix macros based on plugin parameters from the configuration file, so that triggers can now be dynamically changed directly in Zabbix without updating the configuration file and restarting mamonsu.
Upgraded pg_probackup to version 2.5.10, which provides optimizations and bugfixes. Notable changes are as follows:
Fixed an issue with checkdb --amcheck, which previously completed with an error
when the checked database contained partitioned indexes.
Fixed a backup failure on a replica that occurred because the version of the pg_probackup agent running there was different from that on the master.
If you are upgrading from a Postgres Pro Standard version based on the same PostgreSQL major release, it is enough to install the new version into your current installation directory.
While functions numeric_eq,
numeric_ne, numeric_gt,
numeric_ge, numeric_lt,
and numeric_le are actually leakproof, they were not
marked as such in Postgres Pro Standard 10.11.1 or
lower, which could lead to incorrect query optimization. In particular,
it negatively affected query execution if row-level security policy was
in use. Version 10.12.1 repairs this issue for new installations by
correcting the initial catalog data, but existing installations will
still have incorrect markings unless you update
pg_proc entries for these functions. You can run
pg_upgrade to upgrade your server instance to a version
containing the corrected initial data, or manually correct these entries
in each database of the installation using the
ALTER FUNCTION command. For example:
ALTER FUNCTION pg_catalog.numeric_eq LEAKPROOF
Starting from Postgres Pro Standard 10.11.1,
the ICU library upgrade does not interfere with the server start.
Before connecting to a database using ICU as the default collation,
Postgres Pro compares this collation version
to the one provided by the ICU library and displays a warning if the
collation versions do not match; you may need to rebuild the objects
that depend on the default collation if you think the collation change may affect
the sort order of your data. To suppress these warnings, you can use the
ALTER COLLATION "default" REFRESH VERSION command,
as explained in ALTER COLLATION.
Since pg_probackup delivery model changed in
Postgres Pro Standard 10.7.1, when upgrading from a
lower version on ALT Linux and Debian-based systems, run
apt dist-upgrade (or apt-get dist-upgrade)
to ensure that all new dependencies are handled correctly. On Windows, you
have to run a separate pg_probackup installer
to complete the upgrade.
When upgrading from version 10.3.2 or lower, you must call the REINDEX
command for indexes that used mchar or mvarchar types.
Besides, if you have been using pg_repack on Debian-based
systems, you have to reinstall its package manually when upgrading to this version
since its package got renamed to pg-repack-std-10.
To migrate from PostgreSQL or a Postgres Pro Standard
release based on a previous PostgreSQL major version,
see the migration instructions for version 10.
If you are opting for a dump/restore, make sure to use the --add-collprovider
option to correctly choose the provider for the default collation of the migrated database.
