Postgress update from 13 to 16 version

Hello

I need to ask if its okey to upgrade our postgresssql DB (from 13.22 to 16 version) that we are using on our Cloudera cluster, we are using 7.11.3 cloudera manager with 7.1.9 SP1 runtime and RHEL 8.10. From support matrix it seems like we can but https://docs.cloudera.com/cdp-private-cloud-base/7.1.9/administering-hue/topics/hue-download-install-postgres.html
RHEL and CentOS 7 include PostgreSQL version 9.2. However, on these OS versions, Hue is compatible only with PostgreSQL versions 10, 11.x, 12, 13 and 14. Therefore, you must download and install the PostgreSQL distribution separately.
Here is only maximum of 14 version

Hello @lukaspirohanic

Thank you for reaching out to the Cloudera Community

Yes, if you are using CDP 7.1.9 SP1, you can install PostgreSQL 16

Added support for PostgreSQL 16 Hue supports PostgreSQL 16 as its backend database.
