I think we should not reinterpret the severity of the error and lower it. Especially, in this case, any kind of errors can be thrown. It could be such a serious error that FDW developer wants to report to the client. Do we lower even PANIC to a lower severity such as WARNING? That's definitely a bad idea. If we don’t lower PANIC whereas lowering ERROR (and FATAL) to WARNING, why do we regard only them as non-error? Regards, -- Masahiko Sawada EDB: https://www.enterprisedb.com/
