## Standing notes
|
||
- mattermost-lts tracks the **11.7 ESR (Extended Support Release)**. Release calendar:
|
||
- **10.11** = previous ESR, expires **2026-08-15** — migrated away 2026-06-19
|
||
- **11.7** = current ESR, supported through **2027-05-15**; latest patch: **11.7.5** (2026-06-18)
|
||
- **11.8.x** = innovation release (3-month lifecycle, EOL 2026-09-15) — do NOT target
|
||
- **10.12** = innovation release, support **EXPIRED December 2025** — do NOT target
|
||
- Check the release lifecycle at https://endoflife.date/mattermost before each upgrade run.
|
||
- Next ESR after 11.7 expected ~February 2027 (9-month cadence)
|
||
The `release-11.7` Docker Hub floating tag always points to the latest 11.7.x patch.
|
||
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use 11.7.0–11.7.2 — they have a schemeid migration bug in the `roles` table
|
||
when upgrading from 10.11.17+; use 11.7.3 or later (current: 11.7.5).
|
||
- postgres: stay on **15-alpine** for now. The upgrade to 16-alpine requires a major-version migration
|
||
(pg_upgrade or dump/restore with operator involvement) because the stack runs with a persistent
|
||
postgres_data volume. A 16 container against pg15 PGDATA crashes on startup. Major pg bump is a
|
||
separate operator-guided step.
|
||
- Backup format (as of PR #2 / upcoming 3.0.0+11.7.5 release): `pg_backup.sh` Docker config on the
|
||
postgres service. Backup: `pg_dump | gzip → backup.sql`. Restore: terminate connections, FORCE-drop,
|
||
recreate DB, reimport dump. `DROP DATABASE WITH (FORCE)` requires PostgreSQL 13+ — safe on postgres:15-alpine.
|
||
The previous inline-label approach (no restore hook) was a defect: raw PGDATA restore without a reload
|
||
was a silent no-op. Fixed in PR #2 (restore fix cherry-picked from PR #1 ci/pg-restore).
