Startup Process Initiated by init proc (Unix)

Hi All,

I am new to postgres. I am using 9.0.1 of postgres.
I am using Switch over functionality of Postgres and want to reduce the
switch over time.
I have implemented this using Signaling. After signaling the postmaster
(startup process) once the trigger file is created and making PG to check
for trigger file
and do the switch over. PG is receiving the signal and doing the switch over
as well but two startup processes are running on standby node one initiated
by postmested and other by init (unix process).

The steps I am following are as follows,
- search for trigger file.
- Complete the recovery- rename recovery.conf file.
any step is missing I am not sure.
Pls Help.
I apologize if I am addressing to wrong mailing list. Pls suggest the
correct mailing list if anybody know as well.

Thanks in advance.
