Ron's point is that you are currently at Postgres 14.6 and there are approximately 4 years of bug fixes to the current stable 14.22 version as seen here:

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/release.html

It would be good idea to bring the 14 instance to as an up to date state as possible before moving on to latest major version(18), which in itself is a jump of 4 major versions.

Forgot to add to previous post. As you are changing the major version you should go the Release Notes section for each major version(15-18) and read through the notes for the changes that may affect you. It is generally sufficient to look at just the initial release for each major version as that where the new/breaking features are called out. Ideally you would set up a test instance and verify that your code works in the Postgres major version you wish to migrate to.


As to the major to major upgrade I would suggest reading:

https://clusterlabs.org/projects/pacemaker/doc/3.0/ Pacemaker_Administration/html/

and

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/18/pgupgrade.html




Thank you.

    Step #1 is to update to fix the 3.5 years of bugs from 14.6 to
    14.22.  Each node update should take no more than 5 minutes.
