-- PostgreSQL cheat sheet

--postgres is set up to use local.6 which is syslog'd to sflog001
--slow query log is /var/log/localmessages
--config files are always in /data/friend/*.conf

--vacuums are set via cfengine, we use both manual and auto.  vacuums/analyze help with frozen id's being recouped, and thus TX'id's not going over 2b thus causing massing shutdown/reset.  Fix it to exp/imp high TX tables.

--to log into psql:  psql -U postgres -d <DB> (usually friend)
