Hi,

We noticed that we deleted /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432 accidentally. However,
anything seems fine.

Is this configurable?

What is impact of removing it?

Thanks,

Anything that tries to connect to your postmaster via that socket will
fail. You might want to restart the postmaster to bring back the
socket.
