Ok, hmm..
So, while I'm still scratching my head about database whoas..
I've been seeing this message on my AMP for months:
"Nightly maintenance failed because of unsuccessful jobs: clean_database. Contact Aruba Technical Support"
And of course, I've been passive-aggressively ignoring it, daring it to manifest in some discernable problem going on somewhere. But, nope.
After successfully completing the upgrade to 8.0.10 (and additional kernel patches it also included) a couple of hours ago, I went ahead and, once again, ran through the reindex and vacuum procedures covered earlier in this thread. I was hoping it would finally result in some shrinking of the size of the database(s). But, it still doesn't appear to have. I'm wondering if I'm going to see any difference in the results of the nightly maintenance. I'm kind of expecting I won't, because that problem has remained outstanding through at least a couple of previous point release upgrades. Is there anything else I can check or do proactively to try and fix, or make sure it's fixed already, this 'clean_database' routine that's been unhappy for so long?
