Assuming it is unix....  The command

ps xau|grep post

If it is running it will produce output like...

worik@stolberg:~$ ps xau|grep post
postgres   880  0.0  0.2  8580  740 ?        S    Sep07   0:31 
/usr/lib/postgresql/bin/postmaster
postgres   887  0.0  0.2  9536  612 ?        S    Sep07   0:02 postgres: 
stats buffer process
postgres   889  0.0  0.2  8624  632 ?        S    Sep07   0:05 postgres: 
stats collector process

worik@stolberg:~$

If it is not running it will produce output like...

worik@stolberg:~$ ps xau|grep post
worik    26094  0.0  0.2  1608  528 pts/10   S    13:55   0:00 grep post
