Hello Again
What I have done is modified the basic startup script on redhat and
change the PGDATA and PGPORT to the corresponding port number and db
path. For my other startup parameters I have modified the
postgresql.conf in each database structure file this way I can start and
stop the databases easily. Just curious are you running the databases
from servers or workstations.
Thanks
