However, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 7.4.26,

see the release notes for 7.4.26.

Take care to fsync the contents of lockfiles (both

This omission could result in corrupted lockfile contents if the

machine crashes shortly after postmaster start. That could in turn
70+
prevent subsequent attempts to start the postmaster from succeeding,
71+
until the lockfile is manually removed.
