Obviously option names are completely arbitrary -- you could say "-P relfilenode" and it'd still be 'correct', since it works as documented. But we try to make these options mnemotechnic when we can, and I don't see any relation between "-o" and "relfilenode", so I suggest picking some other letter. There's a whole alphabet out there. Either "-r" or "-f" works better for me than "-o". -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
