I see other posts on this log message before, but not clear to me how/if they apply to me. Opinions appreciated. I am on 8.1.3 on Linux. I have a log entry like this: 2006-11-08 12:38:34 PST [3739]: [3-1] LOG: could not truncate directory "pg_multixact/members": apparent wraparound Nothing troubling in the log before or after that. No other entries in the log for [3739]. The system is on autovacuum which seems to have run a little before and a little after this entry: 2006-11-08 12:37:52 PST [18388]: [1-1] LOG: autovacuum: processing database... ... 2006-11-08 12:38:55 PST [18406]: [1-1] LOG: autovacuum: processing database... The pg_multixact/members directory has files that are progressively newer: prddb0:postgres:~ ll data/pg_multixact/members/ -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 32768 Nov 10 15:08 0010 prddb0:postgres:~ ll data/pg_multixact/members/ -rw------- 1 postgres postgres 32768 Nov 10 15:13 0010 ... Anything I should be concerned about? What does this message mean? George
