Start-up script for few clusters: just add water?

От
Eustace Scrubb

Hi all,

I've installed Postgres with few instances/clusters, however I've got a
problem with start-up scripts for all clusters. As far as I know the file
postgresql should be modified in the /etc/sysconfig/pgsql directory. The
question is as follows:
Can I paste few clusters in this file? Currently I've got something like
this:

PGPORT=5566
PGDATA=/db/one_cluster

Such script will start only one cluster during server rebooting. Can I just
add more clusters in PGDATA in the file, something like this:

PGPORT=5566
PGDATA=/db/first_cluster
PGPORT=5567
PGDATA=/db/second_cluster
PGPORT=5568
PGDATA=/db/third_cluster

Will it work?

Thanks in advance, Eustace

This is all very dependent on how you installed pgsql and what OS
you're running.  In debian / ubuntu it's trivial to add > 1 cluster.
In RHEL not so much.  In solaris, windows, etc I'm not entirely sure.
Without knowing your OS it's hard to say.

Certainly not.  You could add a loop that sets the variables and calls
the start code, but it's new code you'd add, not just those lines above.

According to the /etc/sysconfig/pgsql directory you're talking about, I
suppose you are on Fedora.

You need to create one init.d script by cluster and one file in the
/etc/sysconfig/pgsql directory per cluster.

Suppose I have a second cluster. I'll have to do this :

cd /etc/init.d
cp postgresql postgresql2
cd /etc/sysconfig/pgsql
cp postgresql postgresql2
$EDITOR postgresql2

In $EDITOR, I'll change the different environment values I want. For
example:
PGPORT=5567
PGDATA=/db/second_cluster

If I need a third cluster, I will do the exact same step but give a
different name for the init.d script (and also the PostgreSQL sysconf
file, don't forget they need to have the exact same name).

Hi Guillaume,

Excellent point:

>

cd /etc/sysconfig/pgsql
cp postgresql postgresql2
$EDITOR postgresql2

In $EDITOR, I'll change the different environment values I want. For
example:
>PGPORT=5567
>PGDATA=/db/second_cluster

In such case the new created start-up script postgresql2 should not be
modified in the following line:

# Override defaults from /etc/sysconfig/pgsql if file is present
[ -f /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/${NAME} ] && . /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/${NAME}

export PGDATA
export PGPORT

Or it will automatically match-up names from both directories, i.e.:
/etc/init.d/postgresql will get variables from /etc/sysconfig/pgsql
/postgresql?

/etc/init.d/postgresql2 will get variables from /etc/sysconfig/pgsql
/postgresql2

The latter. It will automatically match the script file name and the
config file name.

Thanks again. By the way, if I want to start instances with few optional
arguments, as -S or -B where can I include these? In the same config file,
i.e. /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/postgresql (speaking about RedHat directories
structure)?

I don't think so. I suppose you will have to change the
/etc/init.d/postgresql script (or the one of your other instances).
