Hi Everybody,
I ran out of space over the weekend. /usr/local/ filled up.
I got a new partition and about 1/2 done with copying the
data from the filled-up partition. BTW, I am using postgres
8.3.0 on dell hardware/ redhat advanced server.
I did:
$ pg_ctl status
pg_ctl: server is running (PID: 11148)
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres
and proceeded with:
$ pg_ctl stop -m fast
waiting for server to shut down............................................................... failed
pg_ctl: server does not shut down
My plan was to shutdown, make sure the env variables are
set correctly and restart. But it refuses to go down as
shown above. I then tried to use psql:
$ psql canon
and it tells me:
psql: FATAL: the database system is shutting down
Can I kill the process 11148 and do as I planned accordingly?
I would appreciate any pointers.
Regards,
Tena Sakai
