August 09, 2021, Container Security—Smart Check includes a built-in database pod for
demonstration purposes. For production deployments, Trend Micro recommends using an external database. In previous releases, the built-in database was PostgreSQL 9.6, which will reach
end-of-life in November 2021. To prepare for this, in an upcoming release, Smart Check
will be upgraded to use PostgreSQL 12.7 for its built-in database pod. The changes
between PostgreSQL 9.6 and 12.7 mean that this will be a breaking upgrade because
data from PostgreSQL 9.6 does not work with version 12.7. Users will need to remove
the Smart Check application and re-install it. This change does not affect customers
who are using PostgreSQL 10, 11, 12, or 13 as an external database. It only affects
customers who are using the built-in database pod.
