1. PGDATA is not in the list printed by env, although it should be exported
by pg_ctl that runs at startup (I get the messages
Checking postgresql installation: looks good
Starting postgresql service: OK

2. ps aux lists:
USER       PID %CPU %MEM   VSZ  RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
postgres   517  0.0  0.6  1688  804 ?        S    10:42   0:00 sh
/usr/bin/pg_ctl -D /var/lib/pgsql/data -p /usr/bin/postmaster
postgres   519  0.0  0.8  4560 1120 ?        S    10:42   0:00
/usr/bin/postmaster -i

pidof postmaster
519
What about 517? Am I running two postmasters?

Thanks,
