Thanks for the quick answer.
I have two more questions:
1 – Does PostgeSql support partitions and/or partition views?
2- I tried to install two installations of PostgreSql on windows-2000 and after the first installation the wizard ask me if I want to modify or remove the first installation but didn't give me the option to install another one. How do I install more than one instance?

1 - I would like to know if I can install several installations of PostgreSql on the same machine with silent install (different ports) ?
of course. you can have as many installations as you want (limited by number of ports, memory and disk size of course)
2 – Can I make a backup of the database without shutting it down?
of course. actually it is the only way to do real backup. doing file-copy is not safe, and requres person who does it to think more than neccessary. pg_dump utility makes dumps of working database, does it reasonably quickly, and without any observable (at least by me) disturbance to other applications.
3 – Is there support for multi-CPU?
4 – Is there a support for OSF1 OS?
i dont know. but you can have the sources, so with just a little bit of luck you will be able to cmopile it.
