To create a database in an alternate location, using an environment variable:
<programlisting>
$ export PGDATA2=/opt/postgres/data
+</programlisting>
+Start and stop postmaster so it sees the $PGDATA2 environment variable.
+The system must be configured so the postmaster sees $PGDATA2 every time it
+starts.
+<programlisting>
$ initlocation PGDATA2
$ createdb -D 'PGDATA2' 'testdb'
</programlisting>
