Fsync was off - we are using XFS and the Microcontroller on the RAID card Crashed and took two filesystems offline at about 2 a.m.
There were some error messages in the postgres log, something like Update failed - right part of branch is wrong (I'm guessing - I'm trying to find the exact error - but we do 10 hits/second and there are alot of logs). The pg_dumpall would get to a certain table and crap out - it would just not read anymore data.
