5 # This file consists of lines of the form:
6 #
7 #   name = value
8 #
9 # (The '=' is optional.)  White space may be used.  Comments are introduced
10 # with '#' anywhere on a line.  The complete list of option names and
11 # allowed values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation.  The
12 # commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default values.
13 #
14 # Please note that re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it
15 # to the default value, unless you restart the server.
16 #
17 # Any option can also be given as a command line switch to the server,
18 # e.g., 'postgres -c log_connections=on'.  Some options can be changed at
19 # run-time with the 'SET' SQL command.
20 #
21 # This file is read on server startup and when the server receives a
22 # SIGHUP.  If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the
23 # server for the changes to take effect, or use "pg_ctl reload". Some
24 # settings, which are marked below, require a server shutdown and restart
25 # to take effect.
