这个案例是PG环境中归档空间耗尽，导致PG数据库异常关闭的的一个案例，这个案例重点在于分享一下，怎么快速的去找到是什么SQL语句导致空间耗尽的。
1 故障现象
这里看到归档失败，No space left on device没有多余的空间。

2 分析过程
2.1 确认空间消耗
[postgres@pgc ~]$ du -m /|sort -n
4166 /postgresql/pgdata/14/15/1721/base/41025
34399 /postgresql/pgdata/14/15/1721/base/13025
38600 /postgresql/pgdata/14/15/1721/base
44545 /postgresql/pgdata/14/15/1721/pg_wal
83346 /postgresql/pgdata
83346 /postgresql/pgdata/14
83346 /postgresql/pgdata/14/15
83346 /postgresql/pgdata/14/15/1721
112771 /postgresql/archive
112771 /postgresql/archive/1721
196194 /postgresql
199240 /
这里看到归档目录耗了100G左右。
2.2 按小时分析归档文件个数
注意PG中归档日志的大小跟Oracle有一些区别，归档文件在操作系统中的大小并不代码着实际消耗的大小。比如连续的switch wal，生成的归档日志文件大小都是跟wal一样的大的。
[postgres@pgc pgsql]$ sh ./archive_number_count.sh /postgresql/archive/1721
Date Hour Count Size(MB)
2025-07-27 05 1 512.00
2025-07-28 05 83 42496.00
2025-07-28 21 51 26112.00
2025-07-28 23 2 1024.00
2.3 分析wal的内容
这里随便选择一个归档日志来分析：
[postgres@pgc pgsql]$ sh ./archive_count_sql.sh /postgresql/archive/1721/000000080000002600000001Operation RelFileNode Count Total_Bytes
LOG 1663/13025/65648 76056 7529544
INSERT 1663/13025/65649 2509865 358910695
FPI_FOR_HINT 1663/13025/65649 9 441
INSERT_LEAF 1663/13025/65655 2503007 160192448
SPLIT_R 1663/13025/65655 6882 5206752
INSERT_UPPER 1663/13025/65655 6858 493776
这里看到在1663/13025/65649上存在大量的insert操作，生成的日志大概是358910695。
3.4 查询对象及定位SQL语句
SELECTc.relfilenode,c.relname,n.nspname AS schema_name,CASE c.relkindWHEN 'r' THEN 'table'WHEN 'i' THEN 'index'WHEN 't' THEN 'TOAST'ELSE c.relkindEND AS reltype
FROMpg_class c
JOINpg_namespace n ON c.relnamespace = n.oid
WHEREc.relfilenode IN (65649, 65655);relfilenode | relname | schema_name | reltype
-------------+----------------+-------------+---------65649 | big_table | public | t65655 | big_table_pkey | public | i
可以定位到对象信息。
[postgres@pgc log]$ grep -Ei 'big_table' postgresql-2025-07-28_051314.csv
Query Text: INSERT INTO big_table (data1, data2, data3, data4)
Insert on public.big_table (cost=0.00..12500000.00 rows=0 width=0) (actual time=1345310.410..1345310.412 rows=0 loops=1)Output: nextval('big_table_id_seq'::regclass), ""*SELECT*"".md5, ""*SELECT*"".md5_1, ""*SELECT*"".int4, ""*SELECT*"".""?column?""
定位到SQL语句
3 总结
上面只是简单的记录了如果快速的分析PG环境中归档日志耗尽，帮助我们快速的得到对应的对象和SQL语句，提升我们故障分析的效率。
