Restriction for the PostgreSQL postgresql.conf File

The postgresql.conf file is one of the central configuration files for a specific PostgreSQL database cluster.

The postgresql.conf file must be stored in the PGDATA path. You cannot register Sun Cluster HA for PostgreSQL if the file postgresql.conf is not in the directory referenced in the PGDATA variable. The other configuration files can be kept elsewhere. For more information about registration, see Registering and Configuring Sun Cluster HA for PostgreSQL.
