I believe it does not run (from periodic.conf).
I made a full backup of all databases and one extra copy of the most
crucial one - by pg_dump.
Then I deleted the data directory and made a fresh install of PostgreSQL
9.3.
I will try to figure out the right configuration and restore at least the
single database.
If this turns out to give problems, I might start a new thread here or at
the other friends at FreeBSD.
Thank you so far.

Jon
