Hello,

I was unable to execute VACUUM in zabbix database because VACUUM process was stuck in WAITING status.
Using vacuum in "single user mode" seems to solve this problem.

/usr/pgsql-9.4/bin/postgres --single -D /dbzab/data -O zabbix backend> VACUUM FULL;

I hope everything will be ok, i m waiting the end of VACUUM process.


You didn't need to launch a VACUUM FULL. A VACUUM would have been enough.
 
Do you think that i need to commit somme transactions after VACUUM ends ?


Which transactions as you said you were in single mode? :)

Moreover, there's no way you can commit transactions on other sessions.

-> You might also need to commit or roll back old prepared transactions.


Oh, so you were speaking about prepared transactions. I'm pretty sure you don't have any.

Hi,

Hello,

I've got a problem with my postgresql database 9.4 this morning.
Few days ago we've moved many data in the database to create new data partitions and delete many entries.
Auto-vacuum seems to be inefficient and i am unable to vacuum my zabbix database.
Do you have any idea about this problem ?

Why are you unable to VACUUM your zabbix database? because it is the solution to your issue.
