Database server/storage instability or network
instability?
There is no doubt that there is something flaky about
the networking between the db server and the box(es)
trying to do the pg_dump. We have indeed had issues
(timeouts, halts, etc) moving large quantities of data
across various segments to and from these boxes...like
the db server....but how would this effect something
like a pg_dump?
Would a good stack trace (assuming I want to crash my
database again) help here?
