Hi Adrian,

thank you very much for your patience. I apologise for the missing information.

Hi Adrian,

thank you very much for your response.

I ran the "VACUUM ANALYZE" command on the master node.

Regarding log messages.

Here is the contents of the log (excluding connections/disconnections):

Assuming the below is from the replica database.
the "LOG: recovery was paused" message was indeed from the replica.


2016-02-22 02:30:08 GMT 24616 LOG: recovery has paused

So what happened to cause the above?

we automatically pause recovery on the replica before running pg_dump. This is in order to make certain that we get a consistent dump of the database.

I am not seeing anything below that indicates the recovery started again.
the reason why we do not see a matching "resume" is that the pg_dump failed and our error handling was insufficient.

2016-02-22 02:30:08 GMT 24616 HINT: Execute pg_xlog_replay_resume() to
continue.
2016-02-22 02:37:19 GMT 23859 DBNAME ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for
toast value 2747579 in pg_toast_22066
2016-02-22 02:37:19 GMT 23859 DBNAME STATEMENT: COPY public.room_shape

client: Connection reset by peer
2016-02-22 02:37:41 GMT 2648 DBNAME LOG: unexpected EOF on client
connection

What does the log from the master show?
It doesnt seem to show much. It does have these repeated messages, however:

2016-02-22 02:12:18 GMT 30908  LOG:  using stale statistics instead of current ones because stats collector is not responding
2016-02-22 02:13:01 GMT 30908  LOG:  using stale statistics instead of current ones because stats collector is not responding
2016-02-22 02:13:52 GMT 30908  LOG:  using stale statistics instead of current ones because stats collector is not responding

There are lots of these mesages within the timeframe. There seems to be a couple of them every 2-4 hours.



Best regards,
Fredrik Huitfeldt

HI All,

i would really appreciate any help I can get on this issue.

basically, a pg_basebackup + streaming attach, led to a database
that we
could not read from afterwards.


From original post:


"The issue remained until we ran a full vacuum analyze on the cluster."

Which cluster was that, the master or the slave?

"I have logfiles from the incident, but I cannot see anything out of
the ordinary (despite having a fair amount of experience investigating
postgresql logs)."


Can we see the section before and after ERROR?


Beset regards,
Fredrik

PS please advise if this is better posted on another list.
