ah.. thanks. Didn't realize table spaces can be mentioned while creating a index. BTW, are soft links ok to use for pg_clog / pg_xlog . I moved the existing directories to /mnt/logs/pglogs and made soft links for both directories in $PGDATA

you have to search through pg_class for the "number"
Alternatively, you can try using tablespaces.
create tablespace indexspace location '/mnt/fastarray' create index newindex on table (index_1) tablespace indexspace
