The LOCATION should have the same owner and permissions as $PGDATA - that should catch mistyping. Unless you're running as root, of course. In which case you clearly know better than everyone else, so off you go! > Comments? Questions? Suggestions? Presumably I'm using this to deal with performance/space issues, so there clearly needs to be something in the pg_stat_xxx system to show figures based on tablespace - not sure what you'd measure though - disk I/O, number of nodes? Perhaps something in contrib/ too - tablespace_disk_usage.pl or some such. -- Richard Huxton Archonet Ltd ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 7: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
