Ziggy:

I suggest you read the pg_upgrade documentation.

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/pgupgrade.html

Specifically the part where it says:

"Obviously, no one should be accessing the clusters during the upgrade.
pg_upgrade defaults to running servers on port 50432 to avoid unintended
client connections."
