Logging VACUUM activity
I'm using postgresql 7.4.6 on RH9. My application includes a
long-running Java process responsible for database access. I'd like to
have this Java process initiate a daily VACUUM and, one way or
another, log VACUUM output.
- Is there some way to get VACUUM output via JDBC?
- If not, how can I get VACUUM output in the postgres logs? Setting
log_min_error_statement to INFO doesn't seem to have any effect.

You can run the query vacuum verbose.

I tried that. Whether I issue the VACUUM VERBOSE call through JDBC
or psql, I don't see anything in the postgres log file at all, even
with log_min_error_statement set to info.
In psql, I see the VACUUM VERBOSE output in the psql session itself,
but I need to log the output. I could spawn a psql session if necessary,
but ideally I'd just run VACUUM VERBOSE from JDBC and get the output
in the postgres log file.
