Configure_Coordinators

What we've determined

As in [Laptop_Configuration], we've assigned the following:

1. Work directory: /home/postgresxc/pgxc/coord1 and /home/postgresxc/pgxc/coord2
2. Node name: coord1 and coord2
3. Port number: 20004 and 20005

The configuration is very similar to GTM configuration. Now configure coord1 first and the coord2.

You can create the template of coord1 as follows:

$ initdb --nodename=coord1 -D /home/postgresxc/pgxc/coord1
$

Please note that we specify the node name here. Then you configure coord1 like:

$ cat >> /home/postgresxc/pgxc/coord1/postgresql.conf
