Thanks to David and Gilberto for the input. All sorted and working. Kind regards, Zoltan On 2015/05/07 20:02, Gilberto Castillo wrote: Hi, My question refers to a newly installed postgresql 9.4 on ubuntu 15.04. Is it possible to mount a file system with an existing 9.4 version postgresql cluster onto a new machine and get a fresh postgresql install to connect to that cluster? When I installed postgresql it created a /var/lib/postgrersql/9.4/main cluster, and pointed to it via /etc/postgresql/9.4/main I then mounted a HD with an existing v9.4 postgresql cluster called gisdata at /mnt/geo_pgsql/postgres. Note that I have no /etc/postgresql/9.4/gisdata directory. (I forgot to back it up before reinstalling ubuntu) initdb -D /mnt/geo_pgsql/postgres will clobber my existing gisdata cluster, will it not?Use: pg_ctl -D /mnt/geo_pgsql/postgres -l /tmp/logfile start Saludos, Gilberto Castillo ETECSA, La Habana, Cuba -- =========================================== Zoltan Szecsei PrGISc [PGP0031] Geograph (Pty) Ltd.
