+=head1 NAME
+
+pg_createcluster - create a new PostgreSQL cluster
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<pg_createcluster> [I<options>] I<version> I<name> [B<--> I<initdb options>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<pg_createcluster> creates a new PostgreSQL server cluster (i. e. a
+collection of databases served by a L<postgres(1)> instance) and
+integrates it into the multi-version/multi-cluster architecture of the
+B<postgresql-common> package.
+
+Every cluster is uniquely identified by its version and name. The name can be
+arbitrary. The default cluster that is created on installation of a server
+package is C<main>. However, you might wish to create other clusters for
+testing, with other superusers, a cluster for each user on a shared server,
+etc. C<pg_createcluster> will abort with an error if you try to create a
+cluster with a name that already exists for that version.
+
+For compatibility with B<systemd> service units, the cluster name should not
+contain any dashes (B<->). B<pg_ctlcluster> will warn about the problem, but
+succeed with the operation.
+
+Given a major PostgreSQL I<version> (like "8.2" or "8.3") and a cluster
+I<name>, it creates the necessary configuration files in
+C</etc/postgresql/>I<version>C</>I<name>C</>; in particular these are
+C<postgresql.conf>, C<pg_ident.conf>, C<pg_hba.conf>, a postgresql-common
+specific configuration file C<start.conf> (see B<STARTUP CONTROL> below),
+C<pg_ctl.conf>, and a symbolic link C<log> which points to the log file (by
+default, C</var/log/postgresql/postgresql->I<version>C<->I<name>C<.log>).
+
+C<postgresql.conf> is automatically adapted to use the next available port, i.
+e. the first port (starting from 5432) which is not yet used by an already
+existing cluster.
+
+If the data directory does not yet exist, PostgreSQL's L<initdb(1)> command is
+used to generate a new cluster structure. If the data directory already exists,
+it is integrated into the B<postgresql-common> structure by moving the
+configuration file and setting the data_directory option. Please note that this
+I<only> works for data directories which were created directly with B<initdb>, i.
+e. all the configuration files (C<postgresql.conf> etc.) must be present in the
+data directory.
+
+If a custom socket directory is given and it does not exist, it is created.
+
+If the log file does not exist, it is created. In any case the permissions are
+adjusted to allow write access to the cluster owner. Please note that
+C<postgresql.conf> can be customized to specify C<log_directory> and/or
+C<log_filename>; if at least one of these options is present, then the symbolic
+link C<log> in the cluster configuration directory is ignored.
+
+If the default snakeoil SSL certificate exists
+(C</etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem> and
+C</etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key>), and the C<postgres> user is in the
+C<ssl-cert> Unix group, B<pg_createcluster> configures the cluster to use this
+certificate, and enables SSL. Therefore all clusters will use the same SSL
+certificate by default. For versions up to 9.1, symlinks in the data directory
+will be created (C<server.crt> and C<server.key>); for 9.2 and later, the
+appropriate C<postgresql.conf> options will be set (C<ssl_cert_file> and
+C<ssl_key_file>). Of course you can replace this with a cluster specific
+certificate. Similarly for C</etc/postgresql-common/root.crt> and
+C</etc/postgresql-common/root.crl>, these files will be configured as client
+certificate CA and revocation list, when present. (C<root.crt> is initially a
+placeholder that will only be used if real certificates are added to the file.)
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<-u> I<user>, B<--user=>I<user>
+
+Set the user who owns the cluster and becomes the database superuser to the
+given name or uid. By default, this is the user B<postgres>. A cluster must
+not be owned by root.
+
+=item B<-g> I<group>, B<--group=>I<group>
+
+Change the group of the cluster related data files. By default this will be the
+primary group of the database owner.
+
+=item B<-d> I<dir>, B<--datadir=>I<dir>
+
+Explicitly set the data directory path, which is used to store all the actual
+databases and tables. This will become quite big (easily in the order of five
+times the amount of actual data stored in the cluster). Defaults to
+C</var/lib/postgresql/>I<version>C</>I<cluster>.
+
+=item B<-s> I<dir>, B<--socketdir=>I<dir>
+
+Explicitly set the directory where the L<postgres(1)> server stores the Unix
+socket for local connections. Defaults to C</var/run/postgresql/> for clusters
+owned by the user B<postgres>, and C</tmp> for clusters owned by other users.
+Please be aware that C</tmp> is an unsafe directory since everybody can create
+a socket there and impersonate the database server. If the given directory does
+not exist, it is created with appropriate permissions.
+
+=item B<-l> I<path>, B<--logfile=>I<path>
+
+Explicitly set the path for the L<postgres(1)> server log file. Defaults to
+C</var/log/postgresql/postgresql->I<version>C<->I<cluster>C<.log>.
+
+=item B<--locale=>I<locale>
+
+Set the default locale for the database cluster. If this option is not
+specified, the locale is inherited from the environment that
+B<pg_createcluster> runs in.
+
+=item B<--lc-collate=>I<locale>
+
+=item B<--lc-ctype=>I<locale>
+
+=item B<--lc-messages=>I<locale>
+
+=item B<--lc-monetary=>I<locale>
+
+=item B<--lc-numeric=>I<locale>
+
+=item B<--lc-time=>I<locale>
+
+Like B<--locale>, but only sets the locale in the specified category.
+
+=item B<-e> I<encoding>, B<--encoding=>I<encoding>
+
+Select the encoding of the template database. This will also be the default
+encoding of any database you create later, unless you override it there. The
+default is derived from the locale, or SQL_ASCII if that does not work. The
+character sets supported by the PostgreSQL server are described in the
+documentation.
+
+B<Note>: It is not recommended to set this option directly! Set the locale
+instead.
+
+=item B<-p> I<port>, B<--port=>I<port>
+
+Select the port the new cluster listens on (for the Unix socket and the TCP
+port); this must be a number between 1024 and 65535, since PostgreSQL does not
+run as root and thus needs an unprivileged port number. By default the next
+free port starting from 5432 is assigned.
+
+=item B<-q> B<--quiet> B<--no-status>
+
+Suppress output from B<initdb> and (or only) the cluster status message at the
+end of the output.
+
+=item B<--start>
+
+Immediately start a server for the cluster after creating it (i. e. call
+C<pg_ctlcluster> I<version cluster> C<start> on it). By default, the cluster is
+not started.
+
+=item B<--start-conf=>B<auto>|B<manual>|B<disabled>
+
+Set the initial value in the C<start.conf> configuration file. See B<STARTUP
+CONTROL> below. By default, B<auto> is used, which means that the cluster is
+handled by C</etc/init.d/postgresql>, i. e. starts and stops
+automatically on system boot.
+
+=item B<-o> I<guc>B<=>I<value>, B<--pgoption> I<guc>B<=>I<value>
+
+Configuration option to set in the new C<postgresql.conf> file.
+
+=item B<--createclusterconf=>I<file>
+
+Alternative B<createcluster.conf> file to use. Default is
+C</etc/postgresql-common/createcluster.conf> (or
+C<$PGSYSCONFDIR/createcluster.conf>).
+
+=item B<--environment=>I<file>
+
+Alternative default B<environment> file to use. Default is
+C</etc/postgresql-common/environment> (or C<$PGSYSCONFDIR/environment>).
+If the file is missing, a placeholder string is used.
+%v and %c are replaced; see DEFAULT VALUES below.
+
+=item B<--> I<initdb options>
+
+Options passed directly to L<initdb(1)>.
+
+Per default, B<pg_createcluster> will update the C<pg_hba.conf> file generated
+by initdb to use peer authentication on local (unix) connections, and md5 on
+TCP (host) connections. If explicit authentication config is included here
+(B<-A>, B<--auth>, B<--auth-host>, B<--auth-local>), the C<pg_hba.conf> file
+will be left untouched.
+
+I<Note:> If only one of B<--auth-host> and B<--auth-local> is provided, the
+other setting will default to B<trust> as per B<initdb>'s defaults, opening a
+potential security risk.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 STARTUP CONTROL
+
+The C<start.conf> file in the cluster configuration directory controls the
+start/stop behavior of that cluster's postgres process. The file can contain
+comment lines (started with '#'), empty lines, and must have exactly one
+line with one of the following keywords:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<auto>
+
+The postgres process is started/stopped automatically in the init script.
+
+When running from B<systemd>, the cluster is started/stopped when
+B<postgresql.service> is started/stopped.
+This is also the default if the file is missing.
+
+=item B<manual>
+
+The postgres process is not handled by the init script, but manually
+controlling the cluster with L<pg_ctlcluster(1)> is permitted.
+
+When running from B<systemd>, the cluster is not started automatically when
+B<postgresql.service> is started. However, stopping/restarting
+B<postgresql.service> will stop/restart the cluster. The cluster can be started
+using B<systemctl start postgresql@>I<version>B<->I<cluster>.
+
+=item B<disabled>
+
+Neither the init script, L<pg_ctlcluster(1)>, nor B<postgresql@.service> are permitted to start/stop the
+cluster. Please be aware that this will not stop the cluster owner from calling
+lower level tools to control the postgres process; this option is only meant
+to prevent accidents during maintenance, not more.
+
+=back
+
+When running from B<systemd>, invoke B<systemctl daemon-reload> after editing
+C<start.conf>.
+
+The C<pg_ctl.conf> file in the cluster configuration directory can contain
+additional options passed to B<pg_ctl> of that cluster.
+
+=head1 DEFAULT VALUES
+
+Some default values used by B<pg_createcluster> can be modified in
+C</etc/postgresql-common/createcluster.conf>. Occurrences of B<%v> are replaced
+by the major version number, and B<%c> by the cluster name. Use B<%%> for a
+literal B<%>.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<create_main_cluster> (Default: B<true>)
+
+Create a B<main> cluster when a new postgresql-NN server package is installed.
+
+=item B<start_conf> (Default: B<auto>)
+
+Default C<start.conf> value to use.
+
+=back
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<data_directory> (Default: B</var/lib/postgresql/%v/%c>)
+
+Default data directory.
+
+=item B<waldir|xlogdir> (Default: unset)
+
+Default directory for transaction logs. When used, B<initdb> will create a
+symlink from C<pg_wal> (PostgreSQL 9.6 and earlier: C<pg_xlog>) in the data
+directory to this location. Unset by default, i.e. transaction logs remain in
+the data directory. Both spellings of this option are accepted, and translated
+to the correct initdb invocation depending on the cluster version.
+
+=item B<initdb_options> (Default: unset)
+
+Other options to pass to B<initdb>.
+
+=item Other options
+
+All other options listed are copied into the new cluster's postgresql.conf, e.g.:
+
+ listen_addresses = '*'
+ log_line_prefix = '%%t '
+
+Some postgresql.conf options are treated specially:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<ssl>
+
+Only added to postgresql.conf if the default snakeoil certificates exist and
+are readable for the cluster owner as detailed above.
+
+=item B<stats_temp_directory>
+
+Only added to postgresql.conf if existing, and writable for the cluster owner,
+or else if the parent directory is writable. Not used on PostgreSQL 15 or later.
+
+=back
+
+=item Include files
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<include>
+
+=item B<include_if_exists>
+
+=item B<include_dir>
+
+B<createcluster.conf> supports the same include directives as
+B<postgresql.conf>.
+
+=item B<add_include>
+
+=item B<add_include_if_exists>
+
+=item B<add_include_dir>
+
+To add include directives to the new postgresql.conf file, use the B<add_*>
+directives. The B<add_> prefix is removed.
