Hi,

Is it possible to use the built in replication to replicate between two
PostgreSQL in the same version but in different version of the same OS (Say
Pg 9.1 Ubuntu 12 to Pg 9.1 Ubuntu 14)

I think I read in Hackers that since PostgreSQL uses the OS libraries for
encoding. It could cause silent corruption because the encoding might be
different between versions of the OS. But I cant find the email again so I
can't find the exact context ... maybe I dreamed it ..

We would like to replicate to the other server then upgrade to a newer
version. (the import is too long)

Thanks
Benoit
