Обсуждение: Why vacumming performed on template1 with initdb command ?
Respected,
Am in PG 9.0.4.
While creating a new cluster with "initdb" command I observed a statement echoing as "vacuuming database template1.... ok".
Why vacuuming is performed on a new cluster on template1 database.
Please share your valuable comments.
Initdb output:
[postgres@test-psql01 bin]$ ./initdb -D /u01/pg/update_test_data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale en_US.UTF-8.
The default database encoding has accordingly been set to UTF8.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".

You can change this by editing pg_hba.conf or using the -A option the
next time you run initdb.
Success. You can now start the database server using:
./postgres -D /u01/pg/update_test_data
or
./pg_ctl -D /u01/pg/update_test_data -l logfile start

It's a VACUUM FREEZE, and if we didn't do it we'd have to do the work
over again later, separately in every database of the cluster.
