What do you mean by (12) age - (4)?

I told you to select datfrozenxid and not age(datfrozenxid).

Try and vacuum ALL databases.

 4 template0 1.976.569.889



 4 template0 1.978.965.587


Not necessarily - the age is the count of how many transactions have 
occurred ACROSS ALL DATABASES since the "datfrozenxid" in that database.

But I don't understand why there are changes of the databases
template1 and
template0 at all?
I thought they are only templates.


I don't think that there were any changes to the template databases.

You detected a difference in age(datfrozenxid) - try selecting
datfrozenxid
itself and you will probably see that it does not change over time.

Hello Tom,

thanks for your answer.

But I don't understand why there are changes of the databases template1 and 
template0 at all?

You need to hit template1 every so often, too.  You probably might
as well just do that every night; it won't take long.


The last weeks the following warnings are given out:
WARNING:  some databases have not been vacuumed in 1953945422 =
transactions



Is this critical?


Yes.

[GENERAL] WARNING: some databases have not been vacuumed in 1953945422 transactions

2007-02-15 Thread MG
Hello,

we are using PostgreSQL 8.0.3 and have two databases in one cluster. db1 and 
db2.
Each night a shell script is being executed.

vacuumdb --analyze -U cmduser db1
vacuumdb --analyze -U cmduser db2

The last weeks the following warnings are given out:
WARNING:  some databases have not been vacuumed in 1953945422 transactions
HINT:  Better vacuum them within 193538225 transactions, or you may have a 
wraparound failure.

Now I made the sql-statement:
SELECT datname, age(datfrozenxid) FROM pg_database;

 Yesterday I got this result: 
  datname  age  
  db1 1.090.080.531 
  db2 1.940.858.511 
  template1 1.940.858.511 
  template0 1.940.858.511 


Today I got the following result:
 datname age 
  db1 1.075.558.667 
  db2 1.075.513.031 
  template1 1.955.716.521 
  template0 1.955.716.521 


Why are there changes of the databases template1 and template0 ?!?

Is this critical?

Michaela
