Hi The server that hosts our production postgres databases had to be rebooted last night as the file systems got remounted as read only. After the reboot we re-started the databases but now nothing is getting logged into the pglogs. Can you please assist us in figuring out the problem and help resolve it. Below listed are the error messages in the /var/log/messages file due to which we had to reboot the server. This is a linux x86-64 server. Your prompt response will be highly appreciated.
