Re: POSTGRES_FSM_RELATIONS CRITICAL: DB control fsm relations used: 79569 of 80000 (99%)

Adrian, the current nagios alerting does the following:

postgres=# SELECT count(*) from pg_freespacemap_relations;
 count
-------
 79999
(1 row)

and this is the snippet from our config:
max_fsm_pages = 6000000
                                        # (change requires restart)
max_fsm_relations = 80000

So, we are pretty much at 100%. We have decided to increase max_fsm_relations = 90000 and restart.


To do the right settings for this value, should I run this query in all dbs on the server:
> SELECT
> count(1) as object_count
> FROM pg_catalog.pg_class c
> WHERE c.relkind IN ('r','i')

?

Thanks for your help

Yes, but what is the monitoring actually doing to get that value?
