PostgreSQL Binary Directories Configuration

The Binary Directory (PGBIN) is the absolute path of the installation directory of a specific PostgreSQL version.

Usually, installations are done in the /usr/pgsql-VV directory, where VV represents the major version of PostgreSQL.

note

Although there are no restrictions on having other binaries of the same version in different directories, in the PostgreSYS platform, it is assumed that there is only one directory for a specific version.
