Assuming that PostgreSQL is started by systemd, and encounters fatal
issues, how often does systemd attempt to re-start it before giving
up?

I'm not familiar with that interaction and if systemd stops after X
attempts, or what.

What does postgres do when it encounters fatal issues and cannot
start? It obviously abandons starting at some point.

Where would I find details about this situation in the PG docs?

THANKS.
