When
[upgrading PostgreSQL on a Geo instance](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/database.html#upgrading-a-geo-instance), you might encounter the

If you are upgrading the PostgreSQL read-replica of a Geo secondary node, and
you are not using `consul` or `repmgr`, you may need to disable `consul` and/or
`repmgr` services in `gitlab.rb`:
```ruby
consul['enable']=false
repmgr['enable']=false
```
Then reconfigure GitLab:
```shell
sudo gitlab-ctl reconfigure
```
