I don't know why i don't get it. I am in 9.1 version...
Moreover, when I mount pg_stat_tmp in a tmpfs, the warning messages decrease the warning messages decrease from 1 each minutes to 1 each five secondes. I don't have any others logs warning but the file pg_stat.stat in the mounting point is not created... I tryed before on a test environment and it works...
What are the consequences ? Because this file will be remove if the server reboot.
Those temporary statistics are stored in global directory when server shuts down, so the risk here would be to lose a portion of this data in the case of a crash, either at PG or at OS level.
If we change the parameter stats_temp_directory is it necessary to reboot the server ?
No, sending SIGHUP to the server is enough.
When I lauch a SHOW ALL; command, the parameter stats_temp_director is not here.
You should get it... stats_temp_directory | pg_stat_tmp | Writes temporary statistics files to the specified directory.
