Hi,

OK, I see. That will work I suppose, though may I ask: why don't you just re-mount the new filesystem directly as the PostgreSQL filesystem ? Or is the new space not a whole filesystem of its own, and only part of another (in which case, this makes a kind of sense as a temporary stopgap) ?

Hi Drysdalk

I think this process is to maintain default locations and use additional storage for growing data Smilie

Thank you again , appreciate your help

Have you considered rather using symlinks to achieve desired result ?

You can also manipulate your database location from inside database itself using TABLESPACE.

It's much easier to maintain a database defined location, then symlink/bind stuff around.
That way you can manipulate underlying storage via LVM and have unified configuration for all your hosts regardless of size.
