3a) Check that you have sufficient disk space. You will need about
17 Mbytes for /usr/src/pgsql, about 2 Mbytes for /usr/local/pgsql
(excluding your database) and 1 Mbyte for an empty database.
- The database will temporarily grow to about 20 Mbytes during the
- regression tests. You will also need about 3 Mbytes for the
- distribution tar file.
+ For the regression tests, you will need an extra 20 Mbytes.
+ You will also need about 3 Mbytes for the distribution tar file.
We therefore recommend that during installation and testing you
- have well over 20 Mbytes free under /usr/local and another 25 Mbytes
+ have well over 20 Mbytes free under /usr/local and another 5 MB
free on the disk partition containing your database. Once you
delete the source files, tar file and regression database, you
will need 2 Mbytes for /usr/local/pgsql, 1 Mbyte for the empty
18) If you wish to skip the regression tests then skip to step 21.
- However, we think skipping the tests is a BAD idea!
The file /usr/src/pgsql/src/test/regress/README has detailed
instructions for running and interpreting the regression tests.
