The big killer is the mail server which is courier-imap with a maildir backend - every email is a file and they get fairly unique names. I think I've hit this problem not because of the size of the database but because of how Postgres works - serial numbers aren't reused and looking at the postgres dump, a dump/reload probably doesn't regenerate them from zero.

The table itself doesn't have anything like 2^31 entries: bacula=# select count(fileid) from file; count ----------- 174610251 (1 row) I've been using Bacula for almost three years so that's 3 years worth of fileids there. -- James Cort IT Manager U4EA Technologies Ltd. -- U4EA Technologies http://www.u4eatech.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
