Hi, I'm looking in my log file with today's date. I'm using VIM and have done a search for a pattern match on "autovac", "vacuum", and "auto" VIM returned "string not found" for each search. Am I looking for the wrong string, or is there another log file I should be looking at?

you will only see it if it is currently processing your databases. Look
at the PostgreSQL log file, if it has entries from autovacuum.

Ciao,
