Azure Database for PostgreSQL automatically manages minor version patches. Currently, major version upgrade is not supported. For example, upgrading from PostgreSQL 9.5 to PostgreSQL 9.6 is not supported. If you would like to upgrade to the next major version, create a database dump and restore it to a server that was created with the new engine version.
