Re:

Thanks for the quick answer.

I have two more questions:

1 - Does PostgeSql support partitions and/or partition views?

2- I tried to install two installations of PostgreSql on windows-2000
and after the first installation the wizard ask me if I want to modify
or remove the first installation but didn't give me the option to
install another one. How do I install more than one instance?

1 - I would like to know if I can install several installations of
PostgreSql on the same machine with silent install (different ports) ?

of course. you can have as many installations as you want (limited by
number of ports, memory and disk size of course)

2 - Can I make a backup of the database without shutting it
down?

of course. actually it is the only way to do real backup. doing
file-copy is not safe, and requres person who does it to think more than
neccessary. pg_dump utility makes dumps of working database, does it
reasonably quickly, and without any observable (at least by me)
disturbance to other applications.

3 - Is there support for multi-CPU?

of course.

4 - Is there a support for OSF1 OS?

i dont know. but you can have the sources, so with just a little bit of
luck you will be able to cmopile it.
