Updating an RPM installation v16
If you have an existing EDB Postgres Advanced Server RPM installation, you can use yum or dnf to upgrade your repository configuration file and update to a more recent product version.
To update the edb.repo file, assume superuser privileges and enter:
dnf upgrade edb-repo
dnf updates the edb.repo file to enable access to the current EDB repository, configured to connect with the credentials specified in your edb.repo file. Then, you can use dnf to upgrade all packages whose names include the expression edb:
dnf upgrade edb*
Note
The dnf upgrade command performs an update only between minor releases. To update between major releases, use pg_upgrade.
For more information about using dnf commands and options, see the dnf documentation.
