PG_DROPCLUSTER(1)      Debian PostgreSQL infrastructure      PG_DROPCLUSTER(1)

NAME
       pg_dropcluster - completely delete a PostgreSQL cluster

SYNOPSIS
       pg_dropcluster [--stop] cluster-version cluster-name

DESCRIPTION
       This program removes all files that belong to a given PostgreSQL
       cluster; that includes the data, wal, and tablespace directories, the
       log file, and all configuration files that were created by
       pg_createcluster(1). If the configuration directory
       (/etc/postgresql/version/cluster) is empty after this, it is removed as
       well.  An empty socket directory other than /var/run/postgresql or /tmp
       is also removed.

       Usually a cluster which still has a running server attached will not be
       deleted. To override this, the --stop option forces a server shutdown
       before the files are removed.
