What do you base that on? (copy/paste) ==> I have waited for at least 2 hours, but the database is still in starting up state. In the mean time, there is not cpu/disk activities. > at that time there is no cpu/disk activities and it seemed like > it's waiting for something? That looks like normal recovery. I would expect it to be waiting for clients to connect at that point. What happens when you try to connect to the database after that above has been logged? (Copy/paste the psql command line and any errors, please.) ==> when I tried to use psql to connect the db, I got FATAL: the database system is starting up and it doesn't allow connection.
