Gettingthe initdb parameter values<br /><b>Date</b>: Tue, 13 Apr 2010 17:20:10 +0530<br /><br /> I have an existing
postgresdatabase and I want to know what are the values of the parameters that were determined during initdb. Is there
anyway to know those values ? For example, doc
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/runtime-config-resource.htmlsays that the max value of
‘<tt>shared_buffers’parameter is determined during initdb. Is there any pg_* table which I look into for such params
?</tt><br/><br /><tt> </tt><br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /><br />
