That's pretty specific to RedHat and RedHat-derived systems. (And then,
only if you install PostgreSQL from the RPMs, which if you're using
RedHat, you probably are).

A less distribution-specific way of saying the same thing is

$ service postgres start

But, really, you probably want to do something like

$ pg_ctl
