Yes, exactly. Now, the more interesting question in my mind is: if pg_ctl isn't passed -D but inherits PGDATA, should it nonetheless pass -D explicitly to the postmaster? We can make it do that, and it would have the benefit of making transparent what would otherwise be opaque. I'm inclined to answer "yes" to that question, but only because someone who *really* doesn't want the postmaster to show up with a -D argument in "ps" can start the postmaster directly without using pg_ctl at all. Tom made a good argument for sometimes wanting to keep the ps output clean, but it's not clear to me that it should necessarily apply to pg_ctl. But you guys might have a different perspective on that. :-) -- Kevin Brown kevin@sysexperts.com
