Follow these steps to upgrade the database:
## Step 1: Prepare for Upgrade
Ensure you have recent backups and verify backup configuration:
### Using Azure Portal
1. Navigate to **Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server****Servers**
2. Select your PostgreSQL 13 instance
3. Go to **Settings****Backup and restore**
4. Verify **Automated backup retention period** (recommend 7-35 days)
5. Note the backup schedule and ensure recent backups exist
### Using Azure CLI
```bash
# Verify backup configuration
az postgres flexible-server show \
--resource-group your-resource-group \
--name your-server-name \
--query "backup"
# Create an on-demand backup (if needed)
az postgres flexible-server backup \
--resource-group your-resource-group \
--name your-server-name \
--backup-name pre-upgrade-backup-$(date +%Y%m%d)
```
## Step 2: Upgrade Azure PostgreSQL to 16
### Using Azure Portal (Recommended)
1. **Navigate to PostgreSQL Flexible Server**:
- Go to **Azure Portal****Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server**
2. **Select Your Database Instance**:
- Click on your PostgreSQL 13 database instance
3. **Verify Server Status**:
- Ensure server status is **Available**
- Verify no ongoing maintenance operations
4. **Start Upgrade Process**:
- In the **Overview** section, look for upgrade notifications or **Upgrade** button
- Click **Upgrade**
5. **Choose Database Version**:
- **Current version** will show: PostgreSQL 13.x
- **Target version**: Select **PostgreSQL 16**
- Review important upgrade notes:
- ⚠️ **The major version upgrade action is irreversible**
- Server name remains unchanged after upgrade
- Minor version will be set to the most recent supported
6. **Confirm and Execute**:
- Review all settings and implications
- Click **Upgrade** to begin the process
7. **Monitor Upgrade Progress**:
- Server status will show **Updating** during upgrade
- Upgrade typically takes 15-45 minutes depending on database size
- Wait for status to return to **Available**
- Verify **PostgreSQL version** shows **16.x** in server details
### Using Azure CLI
```bash
# Upgrade your Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server to version 16
az postgres flexible-server upgrade \
--resource-group your-resource-group \
--name your-server-name \
--version 16
# Monitor upgrade progress
az postgres flexible-server show \
--resource-group your-resource-group \
--name your-server-name \
--query "{name:name,state:state,version:version}"
```
## Step 3: SSL Configuration (Required)
:::note
Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server requires SSL connections. The environment variable `PGSSLMODE=require` is mandatory for connecting to Azure PostgreSQL databases.
:::
Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server automatically handles SSL/TLS encryption. No additional certificate files are required, but you must configure your application to require SSL connections.
