# pg_options controls certain options and tracing features of the
# PostgreSQL backend.  It is read by postmaster and postgres before
# command line arguments are examined, so command line arguments
# will override any settings here.

# This file should be located at $PGDATA/pg_options.  In Debian, this is
# a symbolic link to /etc/postgresql/pg_options.

# The capitalised words refer to the internal #defines in the source code
# which use these options.  Options can be turned on and off while the
# postmaster is running by editing this file and sending a SIGHUP to
# the postmaster.
