Hi,
We're running postgresql 7.0.2 on solaris 5.7. The admin docs say that only
one postmaster process should be running. However, our "master" postmaster
process (PID=560 below) appears to have spawned off a couple of other
postmaster processes:
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
bimaadm 560 1 0 Nov 27 ? 1:24 /appl/bima/pgsql/bin/postmaster -S -i
bimaadm 10237 560 0 17:16:53 ? 0:04 /appl/bima/pgsql/bin/postmaster -S -i
bimaadm 10240 560 0 17:17:00 ? 0:06 /appl/bima/pgsql/bin/postmaster -S -i
Is this normal? If not, what could be the cause of this? Our user
interface currently processes queries using the Pg.pm perl module and the
JDBC interface.
Thanks
Dave
