We are at the beginning of the building of a 3-tier development/test/uat 
environment.   We would like some advice on how the PostgreSQL database should 
be configured for this environment. 
 
The environments will be installed on three blades of an IBM Blade Center.  Due 
to budget restrictions, we are building the three environments with separate 
install instances of the HTTP server (3) 1st blade; separate install instances 
of the application server (3) 2nd blade -- the HTTP server will be installed 
from the application build rather than as a separate install; and three 
PostgreSQL database instances on the last blade.
 
My concern is that building the PostgreSQL databases as instances from a single 
binary could lead to problems in a development environment.  My recommendation 
is to create three isolated databases (3 binaries) for each environment to 
mitigate an unforeseen mishaps.
 
I would like some advice on what would be the best practice for building a 
development environment, such as described above, in the type of environment 
described above.
