Moving to a new VM was not the issue, my mistake was thinking the OS
version was staying the same.
Then:
On old VM:
"take offline full backup (PG_DATA folder alone) using OS command"
On new VM:
"Restore offline full backup (PG_DATA folder alone) using OS command"
Followed by installing new Postgres version could be dealt with using
pg_upgrade. Once I was corrected on what was actually going on then
doing a dump/restore or logical replication became better choices.
