Hi Joshua,
I think that it was installed from a RedHat distribution and the
installation left out reindexdb from the contrib folder.  I will look into
this.

In the mean time maybe I can ask you:  Does VACUUM FULL ANALYZE of a
database would also reindex the user indexes of a database?  I am trying to
eliminate index bloating.

Well on 7.4 vacuum full analyze will deal with part of the problem but not all. If you are willing to run a full, I would suggest looking into cluster instead.

Sincerely,

Hi,

Where can I find information about installing and running contrib/reindexdb? I have searched the manuals and appendixes without much luck. I just know that there is a contrib for reindexing an entire database.

We run postgresql (v 7.4.x) in Linux RedHat.


Did you install from source? If so... it is in the source tree under contrib.

If you are running an RPM it should be in the rpm postgresql-contrib
