I’ve faced with the following problem: I’m trying to implement the auto start

pg:2345:respawn:/bin/su - postgres -c "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster
-D/usr/local/pgsql/data>>  /usr/local/pgsql/server.log 2>&1" /dev/null
But this approach does not work as I wished in case of the postmaster process 
dies - it can not be restarted until all child processes are stopped. AndI have 
to  do it manually.
Is there any way to implement autostart of postgres after the postmaster 
process dies?
Probably there is a configuration if the postmaster process dies all child 
processes are killed?  But I can find nothing like this in documentation.

Or maybe there is another solution to implement auto start of postgres? Any help are very appreciated.


I'd use

/bin/su - postgres -c "/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl-D/usr/local/pgsql/data start"


for whatever thats worth...
