Hello!

We have to upgrade our server. The PG upgrade is impossible because of too much data.

So we will create a new server with PG 16, and we have to migrate the databases one by one (from a PG 11 server).

Is it possible?

Does PG16 read PG11 dumps and restore them correctly on the PG16 server?

PG provides backward compatibility so you can restore PG11 backup to PG16.

Or is it unsupported now?

Thank you!

Best regards
