repository?

frankly, I would NOT do an in place upgrade of RHEL6 to RHEL7, I would
instead bring up a clean RHEL 7, and configure the services you need,
migrate your data to it. using the PGDG yum repo, you can install any
supported postgres version you want on any supported OS, even sevveral
versions at once (necessary for major version upgrades).

True, somewhere in RHEL 7 online guides it's stated that it's not
recommended to use the migration procedure (so I wonder why they've
included it).
