Hello All,

Has anyone ever faced the issue of dead rows not getting removed during vacuum even if there are no open transactions/connections?

We have been facing this during every scheduled vacuum which is done after closing all other database connections:

119278 dead row versions cannot be removed yet.
This means there are transactions in progress when the vacuum was running. Do you see any such situation ?

Please let us know, which version of PostgreSQL is this.
