Hi list, we found a problem on our postmaster-service. If we try to stop the postmaster-service with: su - $PGUSER -c "$PGCTL stop -D '$PGDATA' -s -m fast" echo "ok" ;; via a startup/stop-script. Our Server hangs if the $PGUSERs homedir is not available. This could happen because our homedir is mounted via NFS and is exported from a different Server. Does anybody know how to start/stop the Service in abetter way? We know that it must be possible (because it works with the mysql-Service) but there the problem is solved with a servicebinary wich reads a special-conf file (don't know how this binary handles the $USER Variable if not using "su".
