Hi,
I was checking one disk space issue in PostgreSQL server and noticed that
there are some folders which are not mapping to databases. I am not able to
link those folders with any database oid. Can we safely delete those
folders after shutting down the postgres? It is recommended to delete any
files and directories in database directory but I need to clean
postgres=# select oid,datname from pg_database;
oid | datname
