We have a customer running a very high-velocity database. We have set
up a PITR replica that's restoring correctly using JD's PITRtools and
pg_standby.
However, upon stopping the recovery and starting it for production (for
"switchover") it promptly gets into these problems:
14895 2009-02-28 22:19:08 EST kangaroo app 49a9fe2e.3a2f ERROR: missing chunk number 0 for toast value 93557123

pageat block 23768
14903 2009-02-28 22:22:02 EST kangaroo app 49a9fe2e.3a37 HINT: Please REINDEX it.
There were actually several different instances of the first error
involving different toast values.
The servers are running 8.3.5.
Does this ring a bell for anyone?
