[PostgreSQL] Create multiple instances

Settings when you want to create an instance (database cluster) for each of multiple users in PostgreSQL installed on one server. Version is 10

In PostgreSQL, the OS user has one instance, so first create the OS user who will be the instance owner. Also, let's set the group to postgres. (It should have been created when Postgres was installed)

User created

adduser dangouser1

### Create a database directory for each user
mkdir /database/data_dango1

Location is arbitrary

Change the user and group that created the ownership of the directory to postgres

chown dangouser1 /database/data_dango1
chgrp postgres /database/data_dango1
chmod 700 /database/data_dango1

### Set the environment variable of the created user
su - dangousr1
$vi ./bashrc

Add the following

./bashrc


export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/bin
export PGDATA=/database/data_dango1
export PATH
export PGDATA

$PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/bin Is common (because the commands are stored in the default instance directory created during deployment) You may want to go through / etc / profile </ font>.
Reflect settings

source bashrc

### Instance creation
initdb --pgdata=/database/data_dango1

Upon completion, the instance configuration data will be created in / database / data_dango1. Like this

dangousr1@dangosvr:/database/data_dango1$ ls -lh

In this, postgresql.conf </ font> is the configuration file, so edit it.

postgresql.conf


listen_addresses = '*'
port=Set to other than 5432

The port is initially 5432, but It is used for the default instance, so let's change it.

Instance launch

pg_ctl -D /database/data_dango1 start

### Connect to default DB (postgres) ``` psql --port=5433 -d postgres ``` Specify the port number set in postgresql.conf.

You can create multiple instances by preparing users, directories, and instances separately for each port in this way.
I'm fine.
