Googling around, I found this link:
https://scottlinux.com/2015/11/14/upgrade-postgresql-on-debian-jessie-with-pg_upgradecluster/
I plan on upgrading one of the test instances right away. Is the
information in this link the best way to do this in a Debian environment? I
did look at the pg_upgrade documentation, and it looks like I could really
make a mess if I misunderstand even one step.
Yes as pointed out previously:
