pgpool_setup creates a temporary installation of Pgpool-II cluster, which includes a Pgpool-II installation and specified number of PostgreSQL installations under current directory. Current directory must be empty before running pgpool_setup.
pgpool_setup is for testing purpose only and should not be used to create production installations.
pgpool_setup executes ssh against localhost. You need to configure ssh so that it can login to localhost without password.
Currently pgpool_setup supports streaming replication mode, native replication mode, raw mode and logical replication mode. To support watchdog, see watchdog_setup for details.
pgpool_setup accepts the following command-line arguments:
Specifies the running mode. mode can be r (native replication mode), s (streaming replication mode), n (raw mode), l (logical replication mode) or y (slony mode). If this is omitted, s is assumed.
Specifies the number of PostgreSQL installations. If this is omitted, 2 is used.
Specify the base port number used by Pgpool-II and PostgreSQL. Pgpool-II port is base_port. pcp port is base_port + 1. The first PostgreSQL node's port is base_port + 2, second PostgreSQL node's port is base_port + 3 and so on.
If -pg option is specified, the first PostgreSQL node's port is assigned to pg_base_port, the second PostgreSQL node's port is pg_base_port + 1 and so on.
If this is omitted, 11000 is used.
Specify the base port number used by PostgreSQL. The first PostgreSQL node's port is base_port + 2, second PostgreSQL node's port is base_port + 3 and so on.
If this is omitted, base_port+2 is used.
Do not stop pgpool and PostgreSQL after the work.
Start pgpool with debug mode.
Set some additional parameters to pgpool.conf so that the regression test can performs tests against existing installation. Currently the parameter is health_check_test.
pgpool_setup recognizes following environment variables:
Specifies the Pgpool-II installation directory. Pgpool-II binaries is expected to be placed under PGPOOL_INSTALL_DIR/bin and pgpool.conf and pool_hba.conf etc. are expected to be placed under PGPOOL_INSTALL_DIR/etc. The default is /usr/local.
Specifies the path to Pgpool-II configuration files. The default is PGPOOL_INSTALL_DIR/etc.
Specifies the path to PostgreSQL commands such as initdb, pg_ctl and psql. The default is /usr/local/pgsql/bin.
Specifies the path to PostgreSQL shared libraries. The default is /usr/local/pgsql/lib.
Specifies the path to Unix socket directory. The default is /tmp.
Specifies the arguments for initdb command. The default is "--no-locale -E UTF_8".

pgpool-II setting for streaming replication mode is done.
To start the whole system, use /home/t-ishii/tmp/test/startall.
To shutdown the whole system, use /home/t-ishii/tmp/test/shutdownall.
pcp command user name is "t-ishii", password is "t-ishii".
Each PostgreSQL, pgpool-II and pcp port is as follows:
#1 port is 11002
#2 port is 11003
pgpool port is 11000
pcp port is 11001
