Hi,
What file should I be working with?
Just shut down the server and move the directory whever you want and
restart the server. There are no file contents that need changing.
Of course should adjust your scripts or PGDATA environment variable.
Another way to do this is to mount the drive at the place where PGDATA
used to be. The down side of this approach is that it only works if
you want your PGDATA at the root of that new drive.
And of course one can create a safety symlink to the new location of
PGDATA from the old location just in case, e.g., if one suspects
hidden references to PGDATA location in home-made scripts etc. Of
course, that had better be straightened out sooner than later and the
safety symlink removed for the sake of clarity, but when you need to
get everything rolling *ASAP*, temporary symlinks can be helpful.
