Обсуждение: Error on Vacuum Full

Friends,
    I got the following error while doing a vacuum full: 'NOTICE:  Child itemid
in update-chain marked as unused - can't continue repair_frag'.  I couldn't
find any corresponding message in the log.
    I couldn't find anything in the archives except for a message from 2001
that wasn't really answered.  How big a deal is this, and what can I do
about it?
Thanks,
Peter Darley

Friends,
    To answer the obvious question, I'm using PostgreSQL 7.2.1 on
i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96.
Thanks,
Peter Darley

It's not a big deal (that's why it's a NOTICE not an error), but I'd
recommend an update to 7.2.3 anyway.
