<b>IMPLEMENTATION NOTES</b> <b>MULTI-INSTANCE API SUMMARY</b>
Only the multi-instance manager implements support for the
<a href="postconf.5.html#multi_instance_enable">multi_instance_enable</a> configuration parameter. The multi-
instance manager will not start Postfix instances without
"<a href="postconf.5.html#multi_instance_enable">multi_instance_enable</a> = yes". This allows a Postfix
instance to be tested by hand before it is placed under
control of a multi-instance manager.

ter, instead of executing the commands in postfix-script.
The multi-instance manager must replace a "start" command The multi-instance manager skips commands such as "stop"
by "check" when a Postfix instance does not have or "reload" that require a running Postfix instance, when
an instance does not have "<a href="postconf.5.html#multi_instance_enable">multi_instance_enable</a> = yes".
This avoids false error messages.
The multi-instance manager replaces a "start" command by
"check" when a Postfix instance does not have
"<a href="postconf.5.html#multi_instance_enable">multi_instance_enable</a> = yes". This substitution ensures "<a href="postconf.5.html#multi_instance_enable">multi_instance_enable</a> = yes". This substitution ensures
that problems will still be reported. that problems will still be reported even when the default

No Postfix command or script will update or check shared
