while examinigs the db state, I found many other inconsistencies here and there (e.g. tables with multiple records with

I'll be installing today 9.0.5 and let you know if it happens again. Thanks a lot for your help,
Enrico
P.S.
by the way, I have a streaming replica server that has been corrupted as well.
