or execute:
$ sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql-9.1 initdb -D /home/mydata/pgsql/data
The cluster always is created on default path "/var/lib/pgsql/9.1/data/"
Will install in CentOS 5.7
the /etc/init.d/postgresql* scripts are completely selfcontained and
don't use any external environment variables. you can put custom
settings in /etc/sysconfig/pgsql/postgresql-9.1 (where the last part of
the filename is the same as the /etc/init.d/ script name). the main
things you'd set in those scripts are...
PGENGINE=/usr/pgsql-${PGMAJORVERSION}/bin
PGPORT=5432
PGDATA=/var/lib/pgsql/${PGMAJORVERSION}/data
PGLOG=/var/lib/pgsql/${PGMAJORVERSION}/pgstartup.log
However, if you're creating a cluster under your own home directory, I'm
not sure you even want it to be under the control of the system scripts.
