Hi list.
Do usual pg_dump today and have got an error.
---------------------
pg_dump: SQL command failed
pg_dump: Error message from server: ERROR: compressed data is corrupt
pg_dump: The command was: COPY public.candidates (id, name, surname, mid_name, compensation, created, birthday, updated, creator_id, updater_id, home_region_id, home_city, home_street, other_languages, home_region_other, edu_conformity, sex, deleted, resume_text, resume_text_index, mark, kids, driving_license, marital_status, software_knowledge, business_contacts, type_writing_rus, type_writing_lat, desired_duties, desired_other, updater_name, citizenship, compensation_currency, folder_id, plus, random_cat, temp_reg, "temp") TO stdout;
----------------------
I had 8.2.0 on Solaris 10 (SunOS server3 5.10 Generic_125101-05 ), pg_data_dir on zfs mirrored pool. I've checked status of pool and got:
----------------------
-bash-3.00# zpool status tank
pool: tank
state: ONLINE
status: One or more devices has experienced an unrecoverable error. An
attempt was made to correct the error. Applications are unaffected.
action: Determine if the device needs to be replaced, and clear the errors
using 'zpool clear' or replace the device with 'zpool replace'.

--------------------------------------------------------
So it seems a drive should be replaced but pool is still functioning. I still can copy pg_data_dir to other filesystem without any errors. And database seems working as usual. So I guess pg_dump should work but It does not. I've upgraded to 8.2.4 but still have the same error. Copy pg_data_dir to another file system, start postgres with that data_dir, tried pg_dump again but still have the error.
So the question is what should I do in order to pg_dump start working as usual?
Thanks
Roman.
