Hi guys,

What is the correct signal (and number) that should be sent to postgres
when you want to roll its logs?

I can't seem to see the answer...

There isn't one. You have to pipe into something like Apache's
rotatelogs or use syslog.

There is no log-rolling functionality in PG. Use syslog, or pipe the
postmaster's output into something like Apache's logrotate program.
