Unable to Vacuum Large Defragmented Table

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a table for which pg_relation_size() shows only 31MB, but pg_total_relation_size() shows a whopping 84GB.

The database engine is running inside a Docker container, with the data mounted as a volume from a partition on the host's file system.

When I try to run `VACUUM FULL`, the disk usage goes up until it reaches the full capacity of the partition (about 27GB of free space), at which point it fails.

How can I reclaim the disk space here other than write the data to a new table and drop the old one?

Thank you,

Igal
