Hi, we are new-new on PostgreSQL, we are making a benchmark on a Database of 300GB, and postgresql 8.1 on AIX 5.3 after having loading the Database, creating indexes , executing the analyze commands we have launched a select query, the elapsed time for this query was 13 hours, after this execution we fech the logfile and we have found the following message : transaction ID wrap limit is 2147484146, limited by database "postgres" these parameters are set export PGDATA=/INST/PG81 export PGUSER=pg_810 export pg_810=/INST/TMP We have 3GB of memory and put these settings : shared_buffers = 12288 # min 16 or max_connections*2, 8KB each work_mem = 12288 # min 64, size in KB #maintenance_work_mem = 49152 # min 1024, size in KB maintenance_work_mem = 262144 # min 1024, size in KB, 256M We stopped the instance and started again and the message still appears: We don't know if it is an informatio message or an error message . We don't understand why the message is like we will be on another PGDATA "postgres" , but we are on the right one. Someone can help us ? Thanks regards
