Memory full is a very dangerous condition for a database server and may have contributed to your problem or been a symptom of another problem. The main things we need to know (any data corruption issue is worth trying to diagnose after the fact) are: *) what is the setting for fsync? *) Are you using a raid controller? how is the cache configured? *) If not, is your drive configured to buffer writes? *) How much free space is left on your various volumes on the computer? Did you check the system event log for interesting events at or around the time you saw virtual memory full. Can we see the log message reporting memory full condition as well as surrounding messages? merlin -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
