I have a Postgres application that must run 24x7. If postgres needs to be
vacuumed periodically, must I take the application offline, or is it enough
to disallow write (INSERT/UPDATE) access while allowing read access?

I hope it is the latter, as I have a large data set and there are
transactions going on all the time.
