If you have your servers set up correctly, you should never need to
perform VACUUM FULL.
I see. Thank you for the hint...
Well, I do list all databases with the command "psql -U postgres -l -t"
and with some shell coding I do vacuum all shown databases...
I don't think there is some problem in it...
If you do see some, can you give me a hint?
I don't think I've seen the script itself. Without seeing it, I can
only guess. But you don't actually need to do that. You should be
able to run vacuumdb -a, and get the result you need.
The script is very simple one:
#!/bin/sh
PGDIR=/opt/pgsql
DATABASES=`$PGDIR/bin/psql -U postgres -l -t | cut -f 1 -d '|'`
for db in $DATABASES
do
echo "vacuum;" | $PGDIR/bin/psql -U postgres $db
done
I can easily rewrite it to use the vacuumdb command, but I doubt it'll make any difference.
Is there a way how to find out the problem is here? I scanned the log output of pgsql for wrap around but didn't found aby recent relevant entries... I'm pretty sure, I miss something stupid :-(
Thank you very much for your help,
