=head1 NAME
pg_ctlcluster - start/stop/restart/reload a PostgreSQL cluster
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<pg_ctlcluster> [I<options>] I<cluster-version> I<cluster-name> I<action> B<--> [I<pg_ctl options>]
where I<action> = B<start>|B<stop>|B<restart>|B<reload>|B<status>|B<promote>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This program controls the B<postgres> server for a particular cluster. It
essentially wraps the L<pg_ctl(1)> command. It determines the cluster version
and data path and calls the right version of B<pg_ctl> with appropriate
configuration parameters and paths.
You have to start this program as the user who owns the database cluster or as
root.
To ease integration with B<systemd> operation, the alternative syntax
"B<pg_ctlcluster> I<version>B<->I<cluster> I<action>" is also supported.
=head1 ACTIONS
=over 4
=item B<start>
A log file for this specific cluster is created if it does not exist yet (by
default,
C</var/log/postgresql/postgresql->I<cluster-version>C<->I<cluster-name>C<.log>),
and a PostreSQL server process (L<postgres(1)>) is started on it. Exits with
0 on success, with 2 if the server is already running, and with 1 on other
failure conditions.
=item B<stop>
Stops the L<postgres(1)> server of the given cluster. By default, "smart"
shutdown mode is used, which waits until all clients disconnected.
=item B<restart>
Stops the server if it is running and starts it (again).
=item B<reload>
Causes the configuration files to be re-read without a full shutdown of the
server.
=item B<status>
Checks whether a server is running. If it is, the PID and the command line
options that were used to invoke it are displayed.
=item B<promote>
Commands a running standby server to exit recovery and begin read-write
operations.
=back
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-f>|B<--force>
For B<stop> and B<restart>, the "fast" mode is used which rolls back all active
transactions, disconnects clients immediately and thus shuts down cleanly. If
that does not work, shutdown is attempted again in "immediate" mode, which can
leave the cluster in an inconsistent state and thus will lead to a recovery run
at the next start. If this still does not help, the B<postgres> process is
killed. Exits with 0 on success, with 2 if the server is not running, and with
1 on other failure conditions. This mode should only be used when the machine
is about to be shut down.
=item B<-m>|B<--mode> [B<smart>|B<fast>|B<immediate>]
Shutdown mode to use for B<stop> and B<restart> actions, default is B<smart>.
See pg_ctl(1) for documentation.
=item B<--foreground>
Start B<postgres> in foreground, without daemonizing via B<pg_ctl>.
=item B<--stdlog>
When B<--foreground> is in use, redirect stderr to the standard logfile in
C</var/log/postgresql/>. (Default when not run in foreground.)
=item B<--bindir> I<directory>
Path to B<pg_ctl>. (Default is C</usr/lib/postgresql/>I<version>C</bin>.)
=item B<-o>|B<--options> I<option>
Pass given I<option> as command line option to the C<postgres> process. It is
possible to specify B<-o> multiple times. See L<postgres(1)> for a
description of valid options.
=item I<pg_ctl options>
Pass given I<pg_ctl options> as command line options to B<pg_ctl>. See L<pg_ctl(1)>
for a description of valid options.

=head1 FILES
=over 4
=item C</etc/postgresql/>I<cluster-version>C</>I<cluster-name>C</pg_ctl.conf>
This configuration file contains cluster specific options to be passed to
L<pg_ctl(1)>.
=item C</etc/postgresql/>I<cluster-version>C</>I<cluster-name>C</start.conf>
This configuration file controls the start/stop behavior of the cluster. See
section "STARTUP CONTROL" in L<pg_createcluster(8)> for details.
=back
=head1 BUGS
Changing the port number on startup using B<-o -p> will not work as it breaks
the checks for running clusters.
