Dear All:
 
I am trying to restore a database (size is about 7GB) from a dump file created by a simple backup script..The format is data.pg.
 
The schema restores fine,  but during the data restore, i get the following error:
 
-bash-2.05b$ pg_restore -a -d access backups/access/data.pg
pg_restore: [custom archiver] could not read data block -- expected 4096, got 3608
 
I tried this twice now, with backups taken on different days...
 
I am dumping from 7.2.4 (RH8 - RAID5 set) to 7.4.0 (RH9).
 
Any ideas please?
 
Thanks,
Anjan
