After a quick chat with Bruce it was determined that we don't freeze anything (it would be horrid for downtime if we did so in pg_migrator; and it would be useless if ran anywhere else). What we do is migrate pg_clog from the old cluster to the new. So never mind that hypothesis. Bruce noticed that the pg_dump/pg_migrator combo is failing to restore pg_largeobject's relfrozenxid. We're not sure how this is causing the errors Jamie is seeing, because what I think should happen is that scans of the table should fail with failures to open pg_clog files such-and-such, but not missing tuples ... -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
