It may happen only if 9.2 is installed via Red Hat RPMs. Otherwise, 9.6 will be the selected by default for many binaries. If that is your case, you need to: * Stop 9.2 * Uninstall 9.2 RPMs * Install 9.2 from PGDG * Start 9.2 * Stop 9.6 * Reinstall 9.6 (so that the binaries are fixed) * Start 9.6 > But psql defaults to the 9.6 version.

These are the binaries that defaults to the higher version when there are more than 1 major version are installed: psql clusterdb createdb createlang createuser dropdb droplang dropuser pg_basebackup pg_dump pg_dumpall pg_restore reindexdb vacuumdb > And if so, what controls that behavior, We control this by using alternatives > is it easily-changeable, and/or can you go back and forth? Yes, you check update-alternatives command.
