Hi

I need help in turning off autovacuum in the Database that’s running
postgres 9.1.2 DB. I tried to turn it off by putting “off” in
postgresql.cont file and restarted the postmaster but when I run “*show
autovacuum;* “ query I still see autovacuum set on inside the database.

autovacuum

In addition to what has already been said, it is important to note that changing the setting to off does not entirely turn off autovacuum.

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/runtime-config-autovacuum.html

"Note that even when this parameter is disabled, the system will launch autovacuum processes if necessary to prevent transaction ID wraparound. See Section 23.1.4 for more information."
