Hi, I am currently testing pg_upgrade (in copy mode) to migrate a 8.4.4 old cluster to a new 9.0.3 one. It runs fine except when databases contain tablespaces $pg_upgrade -d /pgqdata/pgserver01/data -D /pgqdata/pgserver02/data -b /opt/pgsql/na/8.4.4/bin -B /opt/pgsql/na/9.0.3/bin -p 5432 -P 5433 Performing Consistency Checks ----------------------------- Checking old data directory (/pgqdata/pgserver01/data) ok Checking old bin directory (/opt/pgsql/na/8.4.4/bin) ok Checking new data directory (/pgqdata/pgserver02/data) ok Checking new bin directory (/opt/pgsql/na/9.0.3/bin) ok Checking for reg* system oid user data types ok Checking for /contrib/isn with bigint-passing mismatch ok Checking for large objects ok Creating catalog dump ok Checking for presence of required libraries ok | If pg_upgrade fails after this point, you must | re-initdb the new cluster before continuing. | You will also need to remove the ".old" suffix | from /pgqdata/pgserver01/data/global/pg_control.old.
