Hi, everyone I have a new version which merely add a new column (indnkeyatts int2) in pg_index and can not be upgraded 1. if I add this column in middle by altering pg_index add column and drop column in old version to match every column positionin new version, then can not started with new version, because there is dropped column info in old heap tuple headerand it is accessed by hardcoded macro like Anum_pg_index_indkeynatts which cause column mismatch. And this can notbe handled by deleting and inserting data again because database will be obsolete once the original data is deleted. 2. if this column is added to the end of pg_index( change macro in pg_index.h and pg_attribute.h), in this way I just needto add the new column and will not break old tuple, however,it can not be inited, does this column have to be added aftercolumn indnatts because fixed and variable length thing? is there a simple way to just add this column and upgrade? and how does you implement it in pg_upgrade? Best Regards, Zongtian
