Reindex after upgrade from PostgreSQL 12.10 to PostgreSQL 15.3
Hi,
I am going to upgrade our production database( postgresql 12.10) to postgresql 15.3.
After upgrade to 15.3, Do you have to do re-index?
If I have to do re-index, can I only do re-index on some partitioned tables?
We have a lot of big tables which are partitioned by date, for example, table1 has partitioned table by month table1_2023_01, table1_2023_02 , table1_2023_03 and so on.
Will that be good if I only run reindex on some partitioned table(table1_2023_06 and table1_2023_07), for example, REINDEX (VERBOSE) TABLE table1_2023_06; REINDEX (VERBOSE) TABLE table1_2023_07;
After reindex part of tables, I will run ANALYZE with vaccumdb
vacuumdb --analyze-only --jobs=8 -d <mydatabase>
Will the performance be as good as before I upgrade?
Thanks,

That is not necessary after a PostgreSQL upgrade.
(It may be necessary if you upgrade the operating system.)

It should be at least as good, but sometimes it isn't.
That's why you test (and tune if necessary).
