[Postgres-xc-general] Shell script for simpler Postgres-XC configuration and operation

[Koichi S. <koi...@gm...>]

Hi,

Enclosed is first version of "pgxc" bash script, where you can
configure, initialize, start and stop simple Postgres-XC cluster.
This script does not provide any HA configuration and is intended for
learning what XC is and how it works.

You can configure XC with any number of servers.   GTM should be
configured in one of such servers (of course, you can configure GTM in
separate server).   GTM proxy, coordinator and datanode are configured
in each server.   For configuration, you can edit configuration
section of the script.

The script contains documentation as well.

I'd like to have feedback to this kind of tools which encourages users
to try XC.   I'm thinking to add this to contrib module and its
documentation to Postgres-XC Wiki.  I'll write similar script where we
can configure XC locally.

Regards;
