PostgreSQL 13 - "Vacuum full" process killed but disk does't free up

I have killed the VACUUM FULL was running on a database since 5 hrs. Before initiation the disk was 286 GB free and the VACUUM full took 150 GB while processing.

My question is , Why the 150 GB is not released after the process is killed?

and how can i reclaim the 150 GB back.

Please help me on this.

Solution

  • Disk space released after clearing the logs created while Vacuum was running.
