Example: Modifying the PostgreSQL Configuration File

  1. Modify the PGROOT and PD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables according to the needs of your build.

    The databases are stored under /global/mnt3/postgres/data.

    The log is stored under /global/mnt3/postgres/logs/sclog.

    phys-schost-1# PGROOT=/global/mnt3/postgres/postresql-8.1.0
    phys-schost-1# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/global/mnt3/postgres/postgresql-8.1.0/lib \
    /usr/sfw/lib:/usr/local/lib/usr/lib:/opt/csw/lib
    phys-schost-1# export PG_ROOT
    phys-schost-1# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

    If you are installing the software in the default directory, set PGROOT to /usr/local/pgsql and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /usr/local/pgsql/lib:/usr/sfw/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib:/opt/csw/lib.

  2. Copy the PostgreSQL configuration file from the agent directory to its deployment location.
    phys-schost-1# cp /opt/SUNWscPostgreSQL/util/pgs_config /global/mnt3
  3. Add this cluster's information to the configuration file.

    The following listing shows the relevant file entries and the values to assign to each entry.

    .

    RS=RS-PGS
    RG=RG-PGS
    PORT=5432
    LH=hahostix1
    HAS_RS=RS-PGS-HAS
    PFILE=/global/mnt3/postgres/RS-PGS-pfile
    .

    USER=postgres
    PGROOT=/usr/local/pgsql

    SCDB=sctest
    SCUSER=scusser

    SCPASS=
  4. Save and close the file.
