Re: Adding another cluster on same machine

You need to copy the service file to /etc/systemd /system and give it a new name. Edit the new file and change the environment variable to point to the new data directory.

You will need to change the port number in the Postgresql.conf file before starting the service. Can’t have two clusters on the same server using the same port

Use system to to start the ‘new’ service .
