Hi, I am new to this list sorry for asking such a lame question. I tried searching but did not find the answer i was looking for. I am running postgresql-8.2.4 on rhel5. Do I need the files in pg_log? When I look at one of the files, it shows INSERT, UPDATE and SELECT statements. Reason I asked is because the folder is about 40GB. It is half the size of my /var/lib/pgsql directory.
