Something like that "-o" option would be nice. But regardless of the
solution, and given how simple & streamlined the install path/directions
are, it seems to me to make sense to have some way of doing this that
doesn't involve having to read through the setup script. That could be
From looking at the script running:
postgresql-11-setup --help
will get you that information.
a simpler option, or it could just be a footnote on the install page,
next to the initdb command, something like:
That would be nice, unfortunately I am not the person to get that done.
Your best bet on this would be to file an issue here:
https://yum.postgresql.org/contact.php
You will need a community account to do this.
Optionally initialize the database and enable automatic start:
/usr/pgsql-11/bin/postgresql-11-setup initdb (*)
systemctl enable postgresql-11
systemctl start postgresql-11
(*) Some options for initializing the database can't be changed later
(except by wiping out and reinitializing). You can specify options by
running export PGSETUP_INITDB_OPTIONS="<your options>" before running
this command. See
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/app-initdb.html> for options.
