Hi Tom,
Thank you for some clue in this. So, I assume changing log_destination (from
syslog to stderr) was a way around it to override log_min_messages when the -d
option is specified?
I am checking with the vender, SIOS, on what scenarios LifeKeeper would start
up PostgreSQL with the -d5 option.
Best regards,
