Do you see any files there ? if yes, what is there extension ? We need to first investigate why pg_xlog is growing, is it because of long running transactions or archiving is not working as expected. It is the checkpoint process which cleans up the WAL files from pg_xlog, if that is not happening Regards, Venkata Balaji N Fujitsu Australia
