Normally new extension versions (at least for the core contrib modules) are provided with each major version release, so that will be take care of when performing a major version upgrade. If you do ever need to update an extension, the process is: - install new binary - execute "ALTER EXTENSION UPDATE" - if the extension provides a shared library, PostgreSQL will need to be restarted to activate the new library Regards Ian Barwick -- EnterpriseDB: https://www.enterprisedb.com
