@Adrian, no problem ! I’m sure someone else will run into this and have the
same questions, hopefully they’ll find the answers.
I am seeing something weird though (again, this is v9.1): after my database
became usable again, I started getting the 10M warning on template0. So I made
it connectable and ran VACUUM FREEZE on it and made it unconnectable again.
That resolve the warning.
However, I see the “age” keeps increasing on that database as I ran queries on
my own db. Yesterday the age was 32 and now it’s already 77933902
Just to be sure you are talking about template0?
Is that to be expected ? I didn’t expect it
As I understand it;
1) xid's are global to the cluster.
2) age(xid) measures the difference between the latest global xid to
whatever xid you supply it.
3) age(datfrozenxid) measures the difference between the minimum value
for the table frozen ids in a particular database and the latest global xid.
4) template0 has a datfrozenxid so there is something for age(xid) to
compute, it just does not mean anything as long as template0 is really a
read-only database. In other words template0 is not actually
contributing any transactions to the consumption of the global store of
xids.
Thanks
