Description

Within our upgrade documentation we stated 'stop old or new servers' as the third step. If we run the new server before running the pg_upgrade, distributed deadlock daemon also starts. Even if we stop the new server before running pg_upgrade, upgrade process errors out since the daemon cannot read pg_index table. So, we may add a warning about this issue similar to the warning about creating the extension on step 3 of upgrading coordinator node.
