Thread: Postgresql on solaris 8

Postgresql on solaris 8

From
"Stephenson, Adam"
Date:
We have installed Postgres 7.1 on a SUN Solaris 6 server.  This works well.
We have also transferred the same binary/libraries to a server running
Solaris 8.  This also works well.  However we have noticed that 2 postmaster
processes are created when the postmaster is run.  The second of which is a
child of the first.  This does not occur when running on Solaris 6, only 1
postmaster runs.  Could you tell us why it does this?

Thanks Adam Stephenson
