Hi all. I'm having a database, called "apeland", which at first (when
created) was in the default-tablespace (in $PGDATA), then I moved it with the
commands: # create tablespace apeland location
'/home/andreak/programs/postgresql/9.3.5/tablespaces/apeland'; CREATE TABLESPACE
Check space-usage before moving: $ du -hs data/ tablespaces/
59M data/
27M tablespaces/ Move the database to new tablespace # alter database
apeland set tablespace apeland; ALTER DATABASE Check space-usage after moving:
$ du -hs data/ tablespaces/
52M data/
34M tablespaces/ Then I created this table: # create table files(data
oid);
CREATE TABLE Insert this file: $ du -hs origo-war-01-14-01.20.war
130M origo-war-01-14-01.20.war # insert into files(data)
values(lo_import('/home/andreak/data/origo-war-01-14-01.20.war'));
INSERT 0 1 Check space-usage: $ du -hs data/ tablespaces/
164M data/
208M tablespaces/ Now - why is so much extra space used in $PGDATA? Is
there a way to reclame it? Was the "apeland"-db moved completely or is there
lots dangeling left in PGDATA? Thanks. -- Andreas Joseph Krogh CTO / Partner
