Hi There
My Name is Martin
And we are running PostgreSQL 9.5.3
We are doing a lot of deletes updates and Inserts on some tables
Until now we didn’t Encounter so much Problems with the vacuumizer but in the last view days we have the fact the vacuum cannot remove dead rows anymore
I know it is the case when there are other Long running Transactions running but this isn’t the case
The vacuum Output Shows only that it cannot remove dead rows.
But not why?
Is there a way to see futher Information to see that? To see which session is blocking the vacuum Job?
Thanks Martin
