Hi, I have a question about creating a service script to start/stop/status postgresql instance ( version 9.6.8) on Red Hat 7.
I have read the explanation of how to create such a service script on https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/static/server-start.html . Stopping and Starting works. However when I stop the service with: systemctl stop postgresq.service and than ask for the status with systemctl status postgresql.service, the service gets started again. Is this normal functionality on Red Hat 7? I have searched on the Internet ( including the Red Hat site) for a parameter to replace this behavior, but did not find anything. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards, Marian
