Is there a way to use another drive for processing tables/indexes?
proton opened this issue · 11 comments
For example:
I have one drive with database (full at 99%) and another drive (almost free).
When I run pgcompacttable, I get messages like:
Skipping processing: 10.38% space to compact from 20% minimum required.
Is there a way to use another (free) drive for processing tables/indexes?
Hi,
Message "Skipping processing: 10.38% space to compact from 20% minimum
required." isn't about available disk space
but about available space inside an index. If index have less than 20% free
space - there are usually no sense to try compact it.
pgcompacttable doesn't check available disk space at all.
Kind Regards,
Maksym

Thank you!
Hello.
I understand that if such a message is issued, which means that the table should be cleaned by archive values to reduce the size ?!

I not sure what you mean in this statement.
This message mean that there not enough free space inside table to justify
compaction.
If you would like try compact it anyway there are --force flag for it.

It's weird.
Could you send me a results of \d+ public.history_uint from the zabbix
database?

Has OIDs: noIt's looks like that you have had interruped pgcompact run on this table
once.
You should drop index
"pgcompact_index_14476"
; and than try rerun compactor.—

Hallo, Pavel,
Please try new version of pgcompacttable . Possibly the bug is fixed. If no
- please send me the log and I will try to find out the reason.
Warmest,
Roman
