It depends on the AV product. If you exclude all PostgreSQL processes from monitoring (the postmaster, postgres.exe, etc) and you exclude the postgresql data directory from scans and "realtime protection", then some AV programs may successfully avoid interfering with Pg. It depends on if the AV software is half-decently written. All you can really do is test it and see. Hope you didn't need that data ... Personally, I don't think there's any place for AV software on a database server. It should not be necessary and it's a needless performance/reliability hit. -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
