Here is a doc-only patch that I think could be back-patched as far as emergency mode exists. It combines all of the wording changes to the documentation from v1-v3 of the previous version, but without changing the message text that is quoted in the documentation, and without adding more instances of similar message texts to the documentation, and with a bunch of additional hacking by me. Some things I changed: - I made it so that the MXID section refers back to the XID section instead of duplicating it, but with a short list of differences. - I weakened the existing claim that says you must be a superuser or VACUUM definitely won't fix it to say instead that you SHOULD run VACUUM as the superuser, because the former is false and the latter is true. - I made the list of steps for recovering more explicit. - I split out the bit about running autovacuum in the affected database into a separate step to be performed after VACUUM for continued good operation, rather than a necessary ingredient in recovery, because it isn't. - A bit of other minor rejiggering. I'm not forgetting about the rest of the proposed patch set, or the change I proposed earlier. I'm just posting this much now because this is how far I got today, and it would be useful to get comments before I go further. I think the residual portion of the patch set not included in this documentation patch will be quite small, and I think that's a good thing, but again, I don't intend to blow that off. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
