So we are making progress on our performance issues, we are splitting the data, changing the index value etc. So far having some success, but we also want to test out some of the options and changes in the 9 branch, but trying to dump and restore 750gb of data is not all that fun, so I'm trying to avoid that. So upgraded from 8.4.4 64 bit to 9.1.1 64bit. If we upgrade a database that just uses the public table space there are no issues, works fine. However when we try to upgrade a db that has tablespaces defined it errors out trying to load the data from the then now new db. The tablespaces are hardcoded with a path, so that seems to cause issues. Steps I'm taking Standard location of data /data/db Standard binary location /pgsql/bin I'm moving the standard location to /data1/db and moving the binaries to /pgsql8/bin WHY: because my build scripts put my binaries and data in these locations, so without recreating my build process, I have to move the current data and binary locations before I install 9.11 So I move olddata to /data1/db oldbinary to /pgsql8/bin new 9.1.1 db goes to /data/db newbinary installs at /pgsql/ So when I run pg_upgrade (check validates the config), however trying to the upgrade nets; Restoring user relation files /data/queue/16384/16406 error while copying queue.adm_version (/data/queue/16384/16406 to /data/queue/PG_9.1_201105231/16407/16406): No such file or directory Failure, exiting As you can see, it's sticking with it's original path and not realizing that I'm trying now to install into /data from /data1 What is the flaw here? Do I have to rebuild my build process to install in a different location?, not sure what my choices are here. I mean I'm telling the upgrade process where new and old are located, I believe it should be overriding something and not allowing the included error.
