Hello everyone,
I reboot my machine while postmaster is up.
after the m/c gets rebooted , I grep for the process "postmaster",
and it does not find it.
So, I try starting postmaster. and it displays the following error
message: HINT: If you're sure there are no old server processes
still running, remove the shared memory block with the command "ipcr
m", or just delete the file
"/export/home1/sdc_image_pool/dbx/postmaster.pid".
does it means that i will have to delete the postmaster.pid file ..in
such a scenarion always?
No, only when it doesn't close down properly. Check your system logs to
see what happened.
