Hi,


I am trying to vaccum one of the table using the following command:

VACUUM FULL ANALYZE VERBOSE table_name;



But for some reason the table vaccuming is not going ahead. Can you guys let
me know what the problem is.

Regards,
Nimesh.

VACUUM FULL requires exclusive lock on the table, so it's probably
waiting for some open transaction that has a reader's or writer's
lock on it.  Look in pg_stat_activity and pg_locks to find out more.

Are you sure you want to do a vacuum full? Normally, that shouldn't be
required.
