Check whether there is a table lock waiting for VACUUM FULL to complete by querying the locked object.
Check whether the VACUUM FULL operation needs to be handled.
1. Check whether VACUUM FULL is a system behavior and whether it affects system functions. If VACUUM FULL does not affect other service queries, wait until it is complete. The alarm will be automatically cleared.
2. If VACUUM FULL affects normal service execution, you can find and kill related sessions on the Real-Time Queries tab and re-execute VACUUM FULL later.
