1. Installing and Configuring HA for PostgreSQL
A. Files for Configuring Solaris Cluster HA for Solaris PostgreSQL Resources
B. Deployment Example: Installing PostgreSQL in the Global Zone
Installing and Configuring PostgreSQL on Shared Storage in the Global Zone
Example: Preparing the Cluster for PostgreSQL
Example: Configuring Cluster Resources for PostgreSQL
Example: Modifying the PostgreSQL Configuration File
Example: Building and Installing the PostgreSQL Software on Shared Storage
Example: Enabling the PostgreSQL Software to Run in the Cluster
Installing the PostgreSQL Binaries in the Default Directory (Alternative Installation)
Example: Building and Installing the PostgreSQL Software in the Default Directory in the Global Zone
C. Deployment Example: Installing PostgreSQL in a Non-Global HA Container
D. Deployment Example: Installing PostgreSQL in a Non-Global Zone
E. Deployment Example: Installing PostgreSQL in the Global Zone Using WAL File Shipping
This deployment example uses the following software products and versions:
Solaris 10 6/06 software for SPARC or x86 platforms
Oracle Solaris Cluster 3.3 core software
Solaris Cluster Data Service for PostgreSQL
PostgreSQL version 8.1.0 source files
readline
gmake
Your preferred text editor
Your preferred C compiler
This example assumes that you have already installed and established your cluster. It illustrates installation and configuration of the data service application only.
Note - The steps for installing PostgreSQL in a cluster that runs on Solaris version 9 OS are identical to the steps in this example.
