D.5. Information for packagers

We recommend patching the following parameters when building the package as built-in default values for user convenience. These values can nevertheless be overridden by the user, if desired.

• Configuration file location: the default configuration file location can be hard-coded by patching package_conf_file in configfile.c:

  		/* packagers: if feasible, patch configuration file path into "package_conf_file" */
  		char		package_conf_file[MAXPGPATH] = "";

  See also: configuration file

• PID file location: the default repmgrd PID file location can be hard-coded by patching package_pid_file in repmgrd.c:

  		/* packagers: if feasible, patch PID file path into "package_pid_file" */
  		char		package_pid_file[MAXPGPATH] = "";
