That won't really work - there is no cluster name for these, and we couldn't manage them anyway. > When a PostgreSQL cluster is started with a custom port using > `pg_ctlcluster` (e.g., `-o "-p <port>"`), `pg_lsclusters` reports the > default port from the `postgresql.conf` file, not the actual port in use by > the running instance. That has some value, but might be hard to figure out at run time, especially if the user running pg_lsclusters doesn't have read access to the postmaster.pid file in the data directory. > The `pg_dropcluster --stop` command deletes the PostgreSQL cluster > immediately without any confirmation prompt or warning. That extra safety switch is already there, it's spelled `--stop`. Christoph
