Well I got it working kinda.
You have set up an environment for the new directory and export it under
the PGSQL super user account
PGDATA2=/home/userid
export PGDATA2
Then run
initlocation PGDATA2
After that you have to restart your postmaster with the data dir as PGDATA2
postmaster -d PGDATA2
Now you can greate a new db in a new location
createdb mydb -D PGDATA2
that is it and you have a new location for ALL your database if you use it
... If you do not add -D PGDATA2 for future db it writes to the default
location but you may have problems access it.
I am still trying to find out how to get multiple postmasters running on
different ports at the same time. Does anyone have any clue how to do that?
