Whenever we create a Postgres XL cluster, the coordinators, datanodes and GTMs are identical to the same cluster isn't it? So is it possible to create another cluster on the same host using pgxc_ctl? Do I have to generate a different cluster configuration file so that the new cluster is totally independent to the older one? Please put some light into it.

Yes, it's possible. You must run components on non-conflicting resources such as data directories and ports and also use a separate pgxc_ctl.conf file to identify each cluster. You may use -c options of pgxc_ctl to specify a non-default config file location.
