Hi all, I'm looking into adding things to the way I monitor pgsql installations. One of them was free space map stuff. Is there a way to get free space information (especially used free space) without having to screen-scrape the output of VACUUM VERBOSE? I know you can get the allocated fsm pages from "show max_fsm_pages", but I'd like something along the lines of "show needed_fsm_pages". Is there anything that can do this? i don't care if the data is a little stale, I'd just like to have a rough picture of free space map settings and usage.
