To migrate from PostgreSQL or Tantor DB, first install the latest minor version and then perform a data dump/restore using pg_dumpall, or use the pg_upgrade utility.

Additionally, to migrate from a PostgreSQL database with the Citus Columnar extension to a PostgreSQL database with the Hydra Columnar extension, you can use the columnar_migrator script, which ensures data integrity and compatibility.

Tantor DB version 16 uses new naming conventions for SLRU cache size parameters. To migrate from version 15 to version 16 with respect to SLRU cache size parameters, use the script upgrade-SLRU-from-TT_15-to-TT_16-version.sh. The script is installed in /opt/tantor/db/16/tools/slru_upgrader/. For script usage, please define the PGDATA variable, which should specify the path to the cluster data directory of the migration target version (16). Help information is also available with the command /opt/tantor/db/16/tools/slru_upgrader/upgrade-SLRU-from-TT_15-to-TT_16-version.sh --help.
