Hi All, I am a noob in database field.
Lately the postgres server crashed due to space constraints, pg_control file got lost and the server wouldn't start. Had a old pg_control file placed in $PGDATA/global/ path. I was able to start the server, however, the data seems to be a very old one (2011 Jan 07) (probably the time where pg_control I had pasted was last updated). How do I recover the rest of the data? The data directory seems to be showing entire data, I am guessing so, because the major 4 tables which seemed to be missed are the only contributors to around 100 GB and the DATAPATH still says 163 GB is utilized. When trying to take a pg_dump, it says : pg_dump: schema with OID 29257 does not exist, this OID is there in pg_type, but not there in any other catalog tables. Please help me!! Regards, Akash. ________________________________ DISCLAIMER: The information in this message is confidential and may be legally privileged. It is intended solely for the addressee.
