We are using Centos cat /etc/issue CentOS release 6.3 (Final) cat /proc/meminfo |grep Hugepagesize Hugepagesize: 2048 kB On Thu, Aug 8, 2013 at 6:59 AM, Sergey Konoplev <gray...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Wed, Aug 7, 2013 at 2:46 AM, Vishalakshi Navaneethakrishnan > <nvishalak...@sirahu.com> wrote: > > Daily once we are executing "Vacuum Freeze analyze" -- To prevent > > transaction id wraparound > > using this command > > vacuumdb -F -z -h localhost -U postgres dbname > > It is not necessary to do.
