The tasks discussed here are <SPAN CLASS="emphasis" ><I CLASS="EMPHASIS" >required</I ></SPAN >, but they are repetitive in nature and can easily be automated using standard tools such as <SPAN CLASS="APPLICATION" >cron</SPAN > scripts or Windows' <SPAN CLASS="APPLICATION" >Task Scheduler</SPAN >. It is the database administrator's responsibility to set up appropriate scripts, and to check that they execute successfully. </P ><P > One obvious maintenance task is the creation of backup copies of the data on a regular schedule. Without a recent backup, you have no chance of recovery after a catastrophe (disk failure, fire, mistakenly dropping a critical table, etc.). The backup and recovery mechanisms available in <SPAN CLASS="PRODUCTNAME" >PostgreSQL</SPAN > are discussed at length in <A HREF="backup.html" >Chapter 24</A >. </P ><P > The other main category of maintenance task is periodic <SPAN CLASS="QUOTE" >"vacuuming"</SPAN > of the database. This activity is discussed in <A HREF="routine-vacuuming.html" >Section 23.1</A >. Closely related to this is updating the statistics that will be used by the query planner, as discussed in <A HREF="routine-vacuuming.html#VACUUM-FOR-STATISTICS" >Section 23.1.3</A >. </P ><P > Another task that might need periodic attention is log file management. This is discussed in <A HREF="logfile-maintenance.html" >Section 23.3</A >. </P ><P > <A HREF="https://bucardo.org/check_postgres/" TARGET="_top" ><SPAN CLASS="APPLICATION" >check_postgres</SPAN ></A > is available for monitoring database health and reporting unusual conditions. <SPAN CLASS="APPLICATION" >check_postgres</SPAN > integrates with Nagios and MRTG, but can be run standalone too. </P ><P > <SPAN CLASS="PRODUCTNAME" >PostgreSQL</SPAN > is low-maintenance compared to some other database management systems. Nonetheless, appropriate attention to these tasks will go far towards ensuring a pleasant and productive experience with the system. </P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="multibyte.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Prev</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Home</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="routine-vacuuming.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Next</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >Character Set Support</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="admin.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Up</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >Routine Vacuuming</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
