This was for the purpose of validating the ability to upgrade and run PG 11 in the context of Geo with separate DB nodes. See the issue here https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/-/issues/4975
Unfortunately I was reusing a tracking database that was already on PG 11, so I plan to retest, but I think I caught most issues, and validated that this is possible. The tracking database upgrade is unlikely to introduce a serious problem since it doesn't involve breaking replication or anything like that.

In this video we're attempting to perform an upgrade from GitLab 12.0 to 12.1 on a Geo HA setup. We're evaluating the new documentation, which is not merged yet.
In addition, an unusual thing in 12.1 is PostgreSQL is automatically upgraded to version 10, which requires downtime on a Geo installation, so in this demo we attempt to follow the instructions that tell you to skip the PG upgrade.
The recording is in two parts because I did not have a Pro account with Zoom, at the time.
