Hi All
As per the documentation wal_level= logical supported in 9.6 version.
Can we use logical replication in that use to upgrade.
But the issue here is test_decoding plugin seems to be missing in the library..is it possible to install manually the plugin...please let me know any refer links or steps for that....
Thanks

We went from 9.0 -> v15 in a single step. We used Londiste to do the replication. It’s older technology, but made upgrading in a single move possible. DB is +2TB. We had about 1 hr of downtime between final steps and validation of our applications.
