pg_dump DB_2 failed citing a specific table as the point of failure. A
review of the dump file ( DB_2.txt.gz) gave the last record number of
the table BEFORE it failed. We then executed a DELETE query
and removed the offending record in the cited table.
An immediate pg_dump completed successfully. Confidence is high
that a vacuum will complete as well.
