HI all –
A week or so ago we ran an upgrade to the lastest monetdb June-2020 patch. Our db was 2 patches old.
While the log showed no specific problems, the upgrade effected our databases in that 2 of them would crash when they were accessed, and the third one (the largest one) I could access but could not see any tables.
I ended up “destroying” all the dbs and recreating them fomr the saved binary files.
Now, we are getting disk full messages (the db is only read – no one is adding to it). I look at the file sizes and there is a huge mervingian.log file:
Is it a problem if I delete this file? What will it hurt? Should I “tail” it and save the end of it? Please advise.
