• User login: Unless otherwise specified, perform all procedures as the root role or assume a role that provides solaris.cluster.admin, solaris.cluster.modify, and solaris.cluster.read authorization.

Installing and Configuring PostgreSQL on Shared Storage in a Non-Global Zone with HA for Solaris Zones

These instructions assume that you are installing the PostgreSQL software as the postgres user in a shared directory. For instructions on installing the software in the default directory /usr/local/pgsql, see Installing the PostgreSQL Binaries in the Default Directory in a Non-Global Zone With HA for Solaris Zones (Alternative Installation).

The tasks you must perform to install and configure PostgreSQL in the global zone are as follows:

• Example: Preparing the Cluster for PostgreSQL

• Example: Configuring Cluster Resources for PostgreSQL

• Example: Configuring HA for Solaris Zones

• Example: Modifying the PostgreSQL Configuration File

• Example: Building and Installing the PostgreSQL Software on Shared Storage in a Non-Global Zone With HA for Solaris Zones

• Example: Enabling the PostgreSQL Software to Run in the Cluster
