Re: [Proposal] Global temporary tables

Hi ,

pg_upgrade  scenario is failing if database is containing  global
temporary table

=============================
centos(at)tushar-ldap-docker bin]$ ./psql postgres
psql (13devel)
Type "help" for help.

postgres=# create global temporary table  t(n int);
CREATE TABLE
postgres=# \q
===============================

run pg_upgrade -

[centos(at)tushar-ldap-docker bin]$ ./pg_upgrade -d /tmp/t1/ -D /tmp/t2 -b
. -B .
Performing Consistency Checks
-----------------------------
Checking cluster versions    ok
Checking database user is the install user                   ok
Checking database connection settings                       ok
Checking for prepared transactions                             ok
Checking for reg* data types in user tables                 ok
--
--
If pg_upgrade fails after this point, you must re-initdb the
new cluster before continuing.

Performing Upgrade
------------------
Analyzing all rows in the new cluster                        ok
Freezing all rows in the new cluster                          ok
Deleting files from new pg_xact                                ok
--

Restoring database schemas in the new cluster
ok
Copying user relation files
  /tmp/t1/base/13585/16384
error while copying relation "public.t": could not open file
"/tmp/t1/base/13585/16384": No such file or directory
Failure, exiting
