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.

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.

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).

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.
