report back:
yes, Tom is right, it's because the control-C on the consol cause the
pmdie 2，
simple test without redirect the log would show the effect of control-C
clearly。
And I have to:
nohup pg_ctl start >logfile 2>&1&
exit
and relogin to system, then the server would be very stable.
I think put the start script into system startup script would be no problem.
But now the question is, why Solaris shows the difference? and how can I
circumvent it?
Thanks
