Could you provide a bit more detail than that? Usually the behavior we see under out-of-FDs conditions is that everything else on the system starts to fall over badly, but PG keeps soldiering along to some extent. I would not expect data corruption to result, anyway. If you've got the postmaster logs from this episode, it would be useful to see what complaints got logged. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
