It is possible to set this up on PgAdmin ?

I need to shutdown the postgresql service to change this parameters ?

ps: Your information was very clear for me. Thank you very much.

Complete Answer.

1. If you do any updates or deletes you need to vacuum.

2. If you do any update, deletes or inserts you need to analyse.

3. If you never change anything No Updates, No Inserts, No Deletes you
need to vacuum once ever 2 billion transactions due to wrap around if
you don't your data will disappear. But depending on how busy your
database is this could be once a year.

4. Auto Vacuum does all this automatically. Which is kind of useful.

5. You can do this manually via cron or by hand if you wish.
