+h3. Slow migration on upgrade
+
+This upgrade includes a database schema update (changing an integer column in each table from 32-bit to 64-bit) that may be slow on a large installation. Expect the arvados-api-server package upgrade to take longer than usual.
+
+h2(#v2_5_0). v2.5.0 (2022-12-22)
+
+"previous: Upgrading to 2.4.4":#v2_4_4
+
+h3. Dispatchers require PostgreSQL database access
+
+All dispatchers (cloud, LSF, and Slurm) now connect directly to the PostgreSQL database. Make sure these connections are supported by your network firewall rules, PostgreSQL connection settings, and PostgreSQL server configuration (in @pg_hba.conf@) as shown in the "PostgreSQL install instructions":{{site.baseurl}}/install/install-postgresql.html.
