Hello:
It looks like I got caught
sleeping.
I am running Postgresql 7.2
under Red Hat 7.3.
Postgresql failed today.
When I tried to restart it, I got a message stating that the device is
full.
I used df to confirm that /var
where postgres reside is full. /var is on a 4 Gig
device.
Postgresql is the only
application on this machine.
Please note, the backup of the
database from the prior day, is 45 Meg zipped.
I do not know how the database
could be soaking up a 4 Gig device.
Questions:
How can I recover from this
situation?
If postgres will not start how
can I restore the database from the prior day?
When I run a backup does
postgres truncate its logs?
please keep it simple, I have
about 1 hours admin experience with postgres.
thanks in
advance.
