E.13.1. Overview
This release is based onPostgreSQL 10.11 andPostgres Pro Standard 10.10.2. All changes inherited fromPostgreSQL 10.11 are listed inPostgreSQL 10.11 Release Notes. Other major changes and enhancements are as follows:
Added support for ALT Linux 9.
Added support for Ubuntu 19.10.
Ended support for Ubuntu 18.10.
Modified the implementation ofICU default collations to ensure that the server can be started after theICU library has been upgraded. For details, see the migration instructions below.
Reduced memory consumption when usingICU collations.
Reduced planner's memory consumption and sped up
EXPLAIN ANALYZEfor queries with multipleJOINclauses.Forbade access to tables that belong to partition hierarchies in which bothpg_pathman and standardPostgreSQL inheritance have been used for partitioning. Mixing different partitioning mechanisms in a single table hierarchy is unsupported and should have never been attempted. Previously, you could get duplicated query results from such table hierarchies.
Updated themamonsu module to version 2.4.1. You can now convert all system andPostgres Pro metrics definitions provided bymamonsu to the format supported by the nativeZabbix agent.
Upgradedpgbouncer to version 1.11.0.
Upgradedpg_probackup to version 2.2.5.
E.13.2. Migration to Version 10.11.1
If you are upgrading from aPostgres Pro Standard version based on the samePostgreSQL major release, it is enough to install the new version into your current installation directory.
Starting fromPostgres Pro Standard 10.11.1, the ICU library upgrade does not interfere with the server start. Before connecting to a database using ICU as the default collation,Postgres Pro compares this collation version to the one provided by the ICU library and displays a warning if the collation versions do not match; you may need to rebuild the objects that depend on the default collation if you think the collation change may affect the sort order of your data. To suppress these warnings, you can use theALTER COLLATION "default" REFRESH VERSION command, as explained inALTER COLLATION.
Sincepg_probackup delivery model changed inPostgres Pro Standard 10.7.1, when upgrading from a lower version on ALT Linux and Debian-based systems, runapt dist-upgrade (orapt-get dist-upgrade) to ensure that all new dependencies are handled correctly. On Windows, you have to run a separatepg_probackup installer to complete the upgrade.
When upgrading from version 10.3.2 or lower, you must call theREINDEX command for indexes that usedmchar ormvarchar types. Besides, if you have been usingpg_repack on Debian-based systems, you have to reinstall its package manually when upgrading to this version since its package got renamed topg-repack-std-10.
To migrate fromPostgreSQL or aPostgres Pro Standard release based on a previousPostgreSQL major version, see themigration instructions for version 10. If you are opting for a dump/restore, make sure to use the--add-collprovider option to correctly choose the provider for the default collation of the migrated database.
