Thanks for that, however that's quite heavy handed in that it will stop the postgres instance.
Is there any way to close connections to a database without stopping postgres itself?
E.G I have three databases, A,B and C, and only want to close C.
Thanks

pg_ctl stop [-W] [-D DATADIR] [-s] [-m SHUTDOWN-MODE]
e.g.
pg_ctl stop -D /data/postgres/gex_runtime -m fast
will shut down all connections and stop the postgres instance:
Shutdown modes are: smart quit after all clients have disconnected fast quit directly, with proper shutdown immediate quit without complete shutdown; will lead to recovery on restart

Hello, How do I force postmaster to terminate active connections on other
databases?
Thanks
