We are going to use the red hat cluster suite for a database solution
and would like to know if anyone has attempted (or knows if it's
possible) to have multiple postmasters running on separate nodes of the
cluster suite. Here's the specifics:

I haven't actually done anything but SELECT's from the shared postmaster,
and it was a test machine. Phew!! Glad I asked first...
I think the way I'll do it, is by using in

Hi all,
I've got a situation on certain machines where approximately
70 postmasters are running. Each with one database, and one
data directory.
This is fine most of the time, except for a certain time of the month,
when a very large consolidation process has to run on each database.

The docs are wrong in that case. Can you name chapter and section so we

Hi,
We're running postgresql 7.0.2 on solaris 5.7. The admin docs say that only
one postmaster process should be running. However, our "master" postmaster
process (PID=560 below) appears to have spawned off a couple of other
postmaster processes:
