Jim,

I will find out the detailed version. Meanwhile /home0 is around 8.6 GB.
I don't know how large the DB is. Which file or which command I should
look for? About vacuuming, I don't know either. Can I do vacuuming while
making DB online? I am helping an internal department whose IT person
left and for 5 months no one ever managed this Solaris box. All of
sudden database users began to experience problems with an in-house
application.

Thank you again and I really appreciate all your help and other's help
from this community.

Rocky

7.what?

Former DBA has notes to delete large log files (server.log). But this
time I didn't find same file. I saw pg_log file 4.6 MB timestamped May
9.

Be *VERY* careful about deleting anything in $PGDATA. A file called
pg_log is probably safe, but you never know...

4.6MB certainly isn't going to get you very far. How large is /home0?
How large is the database? How often have you been vacuuming?
