Hi,

I have a hard time restarting the postgreSQL server because as it can be
seen in the logs it has sharing violation with MSSQL Server:

In our project we are working with both MSSQL and PSQL too and using
tablespaces to define where to create the databases, but I can not wrap my
hand around that the pg_tblspc is linking to the mdf files, even if I have
mdf files in the same directory I do not get why the PSQL has knowledge
about tablespaces which was created by MSSQL.

Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,
Adam
