Hello all,
We have a two Postgres servers running 8.3 set up for warm standby using xlog 
shipping.  We had some problems with our warm standby locking up and needing to 
be rebooted and have grub reinstalled for the system to boot.  Once the server 
was back up we noticed the xlog file it was looking for was one that the logs 
say was already applied.  It was 7 xlogs back to be exact.  We have our log 
shipping target replay the xlogs and then delete them when it is done so we 
don't have these old 7 to move back so Postgres can replay them.  Is Postgres 
looking for an older xlog as part of its start up consistency check?  If the 
xlogs were really applied as we can see in the logs can we skip over the next 7 
some how to get the system to start applying the logs we have?  Thanks for the 
help.
