The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 5602 Logged by: Chris Email address: christoph.sprin...@magicinternet.de PostgreSQL version: 9.0beta3 Operating system: Debian 5.0.3 Description: Recovering from Hot-Standby file backup leads to the currupted indexes Details:
A Hot-Standby database is being backed up to a new machine like this: 0. pause WAL file deletion from Hot-Standby 1. backup pg_control 2. sync data and tablespace files 3. wait for checkout using pg_controldata and waiting for UNDO address change 4. copy all WAL files 5. recover the newly created database using WAL files The database recovers and starts normally, but some of the indexes are corrupt afterwards. I could not find any strange log record in logs for the recovered database. This is a definition of a index that is corrupt afterwards: CREATE INDEX idx_tbl_textcol1_textcol2 ON tbl USING btree (textcol1, textcol2) TABLESPACE data5_tbs; Thank you in advance, Chris -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
