Hi,
Thanks for the quick response. I was looking around the postgresql website
for info regarding this and came across a sentence about it. Unfortunately,
I can not find it again. Will let you know if I come across it in the
future. The sentence I read may actually have meant that *the
administrator* should not start more than one postmaster process, in which
case I misinterpreted it.
