What is this directory for and what parameter determines its location?

Postgres itself certainly does no such thing.  Maybe it's being done in
some wrapper script you're using?

<sigh..> My boneheadedness is responsible for 'data2'. I had forgotten that I created a new tablespace there in anticipation of putting a particularly large database on its own mount point.
