Let's start with the version of postgresql you're using.
Next, were you running VACUUM FULL regularly?

It sounds like XID wraparound to me, no idea how to solve that. Got
backups?

Hi !

I'm in the ultimate state of dispair. Over the night some of my
databases just disapeared. But they did not dissaper totally. I can
still connect to them but I cannot dump them. When doing a "select *
from pg_database" I see only 2 databases I hardly ever use (they are
used once in a couple of mounths). Template0 and template1 are missing.
All the databases that I currently use dissapeared!

Please help me to restore the integrity of the system. I'm in dense fog
here :(

Only VACUUM FULL solves XID wraparound problem? I mean VACUUM FULL locks the entire table.

How can I test if I am close to XID wraparround?
