二进制安装步骤：
groupadd postgres
useradd -g postgres postgres
id postgres
passwd postgres
mkdir -p /data/postgresql/data
mkdir -p /data/postgresql/log
tar xf postgresql-9.5.9-1-linux-x64-binaries.tar.gz -C /usr/local/
cd /usr/local/
chown -R postgres.postgres pgsql
cd /data
chown -R postgres.postgres postgresql
cd /usr/local/pgsql/bin/
vim /etc/profile
source /etc/profile
普通用户启动postgreSQL服务
su - postgres
初始化数据库：
initdb -E utf8 -D /data/postgresql/data

关闭postgresql服务
pg_ctl -D /data/postgresql/data -l /data/postgresql/log/postgres.log stop

重启postgresql服务
pg_ctl -D /data/postgresql/data -l /data/postgresql/log/postgres.log restart
