A Patroni cluster can be started with a data directory from a single-node PostgreSQL database. This is achieved by following closely these steps:
#. Manually start PostgreSQL daemon
#. Create Patroni superuser and replication users as defined in the :ref:`authentication <postgresql_settings>` section of the Patroni configuration. If this user is created in SQL, the following queries achieve this:
1. Manually start PostgreSQL daemon
2. Create Patroni superuser and replication users as defined in the :ref:`authentication <postgresql_settings>` section of the Patroni configuration. If this user is created in SQL, the following queries achieve this:
.. code-block:: sql
CREATE USER $PATRONI_SUPERUSER_USERNAME WITH SUPERUSER ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '$PATRONI_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD';
CREATE USER $PATRONI_REPLICATION_USERNAME WITH REPLICATION ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '$PATRONI_REPLICATION_PASSWORD';
#. Start Patroni (e.g. ``patroni /etc/patroni/patroni.yml``). It automatically detects that PostgreSQL daemon is already running but its configuration might be out-of-date.
#. Ask Patroni to restart the node with ``patronictl restart cluster-name node-name``.
CREATE USER $PATRONI_SUPERUSER_USERNAME WITH SUPERUSER ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '$PATRONI_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD';
CREATE USER $PATRONI_REPLICATION_USERNAME WITH REPLICATION ENCRYPTED PASSWORD '$PATRONI_REPLICATION_PASSWORD';
3. Start Patroni (e.g. ``patroni /etc/patroni/patroni.yml``). It automatically detects that PostgreSQL daemon is already running but its configuration might be out-of-date.
4. Ask Patroni to restart the node with ``patronictl restart cluster-name node-name``. This step is only required if PostgreSQL configuration is out-of-date.

You need to verify ``listen_addresses`` and ``port`` in ``postgresql.conf`` and ``postgresql.listen`` in ``patroni.yml``. Don't forget that ``pg_hba.conf`` should allow such access.

It can mean various things depending on how you manage PostgreSQL configuration. If you specified `postgresql.config_dir`, Patroni generates the ``pg_hba.conf`` based on the settings in the :ref:`bootstrap <bootstrap_settings>` section only when it bootstraps a new cluster. In this scenario the ``PGDATA`` was not empty, therefore no bootstrap happened. This file must exist beforehand.
