I use PostGre 8.3 on Ubuntu.
I realized last Friday that my /opt hard disk was full. The disk was full about
2-4 hours of moderate activity. The disk ran out of space for reasons outside
of postgres
I'm really at a loss of what to do. Does anyone have suggestions for what my
next step should be. T
More details:
When I run postgress...Postgres seems to come up...However, it is completely
unresponsive to my application. Everything just hangs.

I also tried to run pg_dump to make a backup and that failed with the following
message:
