Обсуждение: More on creating data bases for 4 distinct users
Further to my earlier posting, I have now figured out that I have to create clusters for each of the users in their own directory structures. I have done that, and made all files owned by the development user id as well as identifying that user to postgres. That takes me to the problem of triggering multiple postmasters at bootup. I cannot accomplish this in the furnished /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql script which makes explicit mention of the fact this is not yet provided for. Is anyone else doing this? My reasons for doing so are twofold: One, I want to spread the activity in an array of fast SCSI hard drives and Two, I need to be able to easily extricate each of the sites individually as the time comes for each to be transferred from the development machine to a co-location machine. Could I, for example, add the additional postmaster requests to the existing .opt file in postgres' default directory? Thanks for any pointers ... "George" -- G.

You can do this by starting multiple postmaster and having each one listen on a distinct port number.
