Upgrade Notices

BREAKING CHANGE If using the sub-chart Postgres database for Mattermost, you will be required to perform a pg_dump before upgrading and then restore the database and data to the new pod in order to keep data. There is no clean upgrade path from prior PostgreSQL versions to the new version. This sub-chart in-cluster database is NOT a production setup/recommended installation.

BREAKING CHANGE If you are setting a custom username, password or database for the sub-chart Postgres database for mattermost, the credential settings have moved.

Old setting New setting
postgresql.postgresqlUsername postgresql.auth.username
postgresql.postgresqlPassword postgresql.auth.password
postgresql.postgresqlDatabase postgresql.auth.database
