I’ve faced with the following problem: I’m trying to implement the auto start of postgres. My way is to use inittab:
pg:2345:respawn:/bin/su - postgres -c "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster
-D/usr/local/pgsql/data>> /usr/local/pgsql/server.log 2>&1" /dev/null
But this approach does not work as I wished in case of the postmaster process dies - it can not be restarted until all child processes are stopped. AndI have to do it manually.
Is there any way to implement autostart of postgres after the postmaster process dies?
Probably there is a configuration if the postmaster process dies all child processes are killed? But I can find nothing like this in documentation.
Or maybe there is another solution to implement auto start of
postgres? Any help are very appreciated.
I'd use
/bin/su - postgres -c "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl-D/usr/local/pgsql/data start"
for whatever thats worth...
