Re: Maintenance question / DB size anomaly...

Drat! I'm wrong again. I thought for sure there wouldn't be a
wraparound problem.
So does this affect the entire database server, or just this table?
Is best way to
proceed to immediately ditch this db and promote one of my slaves to
a master? I'm just
concerned about the data integrity. Note that I don't use OID for
anything really, so I'm
hoping I'll be safe.

Thanks again, Tom.
