Re: Access a Postgres storage with two independent instances

Actually what I want is multiple Postgres instances to have read and write
access to the same data storage directory. Anyway, that can not be possible
as what you say. But, when I deploy MySQL/MongoDB deployment with multiple
replicas to access the same storage, the all pods except one become
CrashLoopBackOff state. This is happening for MySQL/Mongo. When it comes to
Postgres, I deployed it with multiple pods, all the pods became healthy and
there is no such CrashLoopBackOff state occurred. But those pods access
different storages for every pod. Why this totally different from MySQL and
Mongo?
