Hi Andreas, Yes I'm facing problem because of this huge WAL(archive log) generation. As it is seriously consuming a lot of disk space almost close to 50GB per day even if the DML's don't have that impact in this WAL generation. Previously the archive_log size is nearly 2 to 3 GB a day. Now with the same set of DML's how is it being generated to 50GB is my burning doubt.
Will so many wals continue to be produced?
I just wanted to know how to stabilize this issue, as checking and deleting the archive logs on hourly basis is not a good idea.
Don't delete wal's!
Finally, I'm looking how to reduce this back to normal. Thanks in Advance.
have you set archive_mode to on and defined an archive_command? Wal-files will be reused after 2 checkpoints.
Is there something in the logs? Regards, Andreas -- 2ndQuadrant - The PostgreSQL Support Company. www.2ndQuadrant.com
