Sorry Craig,
I am using
PostgreSQL 8.3.8 on i686-redhat-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.4.6
20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-10)
version. and in my case I have to drop database and recreate it without
stop/restart database server.while several client are also running on this
datbase server .As you told pg_terminate_backend() is for 8.4.
Can you please let me know the how I can do this task via shell script.
