PostgreSQL Archive Log Directory

When use Temporary Tablespace Groups

I was managing a database that had a temporary tablespace which was having problems to hold the results of a sort. Then I solved this problem by creating a temporary tablespace group. And according to Oracle Corporation, “… enables parallel execution servers in a single parallel operation to use multiple temporary tablespaces.”. So how can I do that?
