If you're wanting to know if postmaster was started with any command line args, such as an admin might do on a ad hoc basis from pg_ctl etc; cat $PGDATA/postmaster.opts If you do a simple 'pg_ctl start' all you'll get is the path to the postmaster or postgres executable. OTOH, 'pg_ctl -o-F start' and the path plus your -F option will show up there.
