Thread: Setting Auto Vacuum from PGAdmin

Setting Auto Vacuum from PGAdmin

Hi Everyone,

I've just maintain my postgresql server 8.1 which has a database of 470 GB in size. What I mean by maintenance is to vacuum analyze it. And now it looks faster to accesss every tables in that database.

What I want to do is to set autovacuum for some of the tables, which configuration dialog is available in PGAdmin. Does it save to do so ? And is it permanently configured ? I dare not try it right now before I've got some advice from experienced administrator.

Thanks,

Feris

Sure, use the table properties dialog to change the autovacuum settings
for each table.

I suppose you mean safe? if so, sure, it is completely safe.

Yes.

And if you find any bugs in pgAdmin, don't forget to report them.
