Hello,

a little more information would be helpful.
But to make things short: The user who starts the initdb command is the database admin user. When you install PostgreSQL via the tool of your distribution like apt (Debian), yum or whatever then the package manager generates the user postgres and executes initdb as user postgres.

Kind regards,
Wolfgang

To meet our security requirement, we would like to use another account other than postgres to install and run postgreSQL.  Is this possible to do?


​You need to tell us by what method you intend to install PostgreSQL, and on what platform, before this can be usefully answered.​

The documentation covers how to go about installing from source.  It should cover how to choose a label different than "postgres" if you so desire.
