Hi Team,
It seems vacuum is behaving somewhat weird on postgres database , observing below HINTS on the vacuum logs
WARNING: oldest xmin is far in the past
HINT: Close open transactions soon to avoid wraparound problems.
You might also need to commit or roll back old prepared transactions, or drop stale replication slots.
What version?
What other databases are present?
Others can give better (more detailed/nuanced) guidance but if you can just start vacuuming every table in every database manually, you probably should just do that. Vacuum freeze specifically.

This site has lots of useful queries for this sort of issue:

I think you're looking for a very old transaction that is probably
not going to finish, must be terminated.
