Bug reference: 5212
Logged by: Amaya Gamarra
Email address: amaya.gama...@gtd.es
PostgreSQL version: 8.1.11
Operating system: RHEL %.2
Description: incorrect resource manager data checksum in record at
...
Details:
Hi,
We've got a Slony-I cluster over 2 postgres 8.1.11 servers. Every 4 or 5
days the DB access gets locked and an the next error appears on the log:
"redo starts at 2/XXXXXX"
"incorrect resource manager data checksum in record at 2/YYYYYYYY"
"redo done at 2/ZZZZZZZZ"
Sometimes we can also find a recommandation for increasing our check_points.
I suspect that the problem comes from our postgres configuration but I would
like to confirm it. I join the pgsql.conf file. Could you please tell me
what are the parameters to change/survey?
Thanks for your help,
Amaya
# -----------------------------
# PostgreSQL configuration file
# -----------------------------
#
# This file consists of lines of the form:
#
# name = value
#
# (The "=" is optional.) Whitespace may be used. Comments are introduced
with
# "#" anywhere on a line. The complete list of parameter names and allowed
# values can be found in the PostgreSQL documentation.
#
# The commented-out settings shown in this file represent the default
values.
# Re-commenting a setting is NOT sufficient to revert it to the default
value;
# you need to reload the server.
#
# This file is read on server startup and when the server receives a SIGHUP
# signal. If you edit the file on a running system, you have to SIGHUP the
# server for the changes to take effect, or use "pg_ctl reload". Some
# parameters, which are marked below, require a server shutdown and restart
to
# take effect.
#
# Any parameter can also be given as a command-line option to the server,
e.g.,
# "postgres -c log_connections=on". Some paramters can be changed at run
time
# with the "SET" SQL command.
