Well, you could try "find" as root and look for some of the standard subdirectories for PostgreSQL, subdirs like pg_xlog, pg_clog, pg_logical, pg_stat, and so forth. Just remember that these are mode 700 for the postgres user, so a normal user find will not work, you must use postgres or root.

cd /var/lib/pgsql/9.4/data
-bash: cd: /var/lib/pgsql/9.4/data: No such file or directory

I tried find to locate the pg_log and conffiles nothing returned except
config sameples
