Hi,
Our site run into a pnfs server failure, because of the postgresql transaction id wraparound problem,
Now , I am trying to vacuum the database companion in the standalone model:

root(at)head02 /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_log# su - postgres
-bash-3.00$ postgres -D /var/lib/pgsql/data
WARNING: database "companion" must be vacuumed within 4294599306 transactions
HINT: To avoid a database shutdown, execute a full-database VACUUM in "companion".
WARNING: database "companion" must be vacuumed within 4294599306 transactions
HINT: To avoid a database shutdown, execute a full-database VACUUM in "companion".

PostgreSQL stand-alone backend 8.1.4
backend> vacuum full
WARNING: database "companion" must be vacuumed within 4294599250 transactions
HINT: To avoid a database shutdown, execute a full-database VACUUM in "companion".
WARNING: database "companion" must be vacuumed within 4294599249 transactions
HINT: To avoid a database shutdown, execute a full-database VACUUM in "companion".

and

it seems the vacuum failed?
any ideas about it?

thanks

wenjing
