database corruption - Mailing list pgsql-novice

Hi,

    We recently switch over from Solaris to Linux and we've been
experiencing a couple database corruptions problems.  We're using the
2.6 kernel and a XFS file system, in case there are any known problems
with this setup.

It's my understanding that these errors are typically b/c of hardware
problems, so we're in the process of checking the disk.  However, are
there other things that I should look to find out what's going on?   The
table that was corrupted earlier this week was dropped and  recreated,
but it was corrupted again sometime last night.  The table is pretty
active, about 10GB are inserted and deleted every day.
