Same error, unfortunately. Hm. So far as I can find from googling, ZFS doesn't support O_DIRECT, or if it does the support is very new. However, if that were the problem then you ought to be seeing EINVAL or similar, not ENOENT; and what's more the file should have gotten created before we'd try to open it with O_DIRECT, so it should have been there after --noclean. So I'm still baffled. Back to wondering if strace will show anything interesting. 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
