pg_autovacuum in 8beta-dev3 small bug

Hi folks,

8.0beta3 has pg_autovacuum included, when I want to run this as a Windows
service, it says you can use the -I and -R options.

When I do that and I specify a password with '-P' (uppercase) then in the
registry it's saved as '-p' (lowercase) in the service-commandline
(ImagePath).

Also it removes the quotes I added and I'm not so sure it would work the
way it's supposed to, without it.

If you add DependOnService (a REG_MULTI_SZ an array-like-thingie) and have
the name (in this case: pgsql-8.0-beta2-dev3) of a service it depends on,
it will not fail to start, when PostgreSQL already failed.

Maybe it's an idea to specify it on the commandline (what service to
depend on).

hope this was helpfull,
Lennie.

I decided to try pg_autovacuum and am having a problem. It never analyzes or vacuums. I looked at the code and had it display printf("%s,%s,%s\n",PQgetvalue(res, j, PQfnumber(res, "n_tup_ins")),PQgetvalue(res, j, PQfnumber(res, "n_tup_upd")),PQgetvalue(res, j, PQfnumber(res, "n_tup_del"))); All of these values are always 0 for all tables irregardless of activity on the tables. Any clue what could be causing this? In postgresql.conf...

Hello, I've run across a pretty serious problem with pg_autovacuum. pg_autovacuum looses track of any table that's ever been truncated (possibly other situations too). When i truncate a table it gets a new relfilenode in pg_class. This is a problem because pg_autovacuum assumes pg_class.relfilenode will join to pg_stats_all_tables.relid. pg_stats_all_tables.relid is actallly the oid from pg_class, not the relfilenode. These two...

Hi! I haven't found anything in terms of startup- and check-scripts for pg_autovacuum yet; usually I like to have some sort of mechanism to check if some daemon is running and restart it if it isn't. Of course this sort of script shouldn't be too much of a bother for more experienced users; however you might actually find this small checkup-script more or less useful - just save it in /opt/pgsql/bin/ as autovachk, chmod +x and follow...

I've having a strange issue with pg_autovacuum. I have a table with about 4 million rows in 20,000 pages. autovacuum likes to vacuum and/or analyze it every 45 minutes or so, but it probably doesn't have more that a few hundred rows changed every few hours. when i run autovacuum with -d3 it says table name: basement_nightly."public"."search_words4" relid: 396238832; relisshared: 0 reltuples: 4; relpages: 20013

Is it possible/safe to compile the latest version of pg_autovacuum, and use it with a 7.2.4 postmaster? I know the better solution would be to upgrade everything, but that involves a lot of work which we've managed to put off for a long time already, and autovacuum is pretty much the only feature we really need immediately. -- Peter Haworth pmh@edison.ioppublishing.com "There are two ways of constructing a software design.

I'm about to try to implement a simple pg_autovacuum script that can be used in conjunction with or integrated entirely with the contrib start-scripts for postgres. I just want to check that what I'm doing has the appropriate sanity checks. The behavior I'm considering is: if pg_ctl status returns a good value then if pg_autovacuum is not running then start pg_autovacuum

I get this in the logs for every database open by pg_autovacuum: Sep 1 14:02:45 cerberus pg_autovacuum: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server This is produced by the bind_to() call in libnss-ldap. This is invoked when /etc/nss_switch.conf specifies ldap; what I don't understand yet is what pg_autovacuum is doing differently from every other application so as to cause this message.

I've been using pg_autovacuum on a largish postgres installation successfully for several weeks, now. I know that pg_autovacuum has no facility for monitoring the system to know whether any particular time is a good one for it to do it's thing, but I'm wondering what the occasional episodes of 99.9% CPU usage (as reported by top) are. I keep a pg_autovacuum.log, and when the spikes start, often nothing is written to the log. And what...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
