Thanks for the doc on pg_resetxlog. Will try it next week when I'm back from Easter holiday, first backuping $PGDATA. Most of my databases are stored in a default tablespace I defined on a different disk than that of my PG installation (and $PGDATA): could I just reinstall PG and then re-link it with my databases on that disk?
Not really, $PGDATA holds the global information for the cluster. If you reinstalled which implies another initdb then you would have a head($PGDATA) that knows nothing about the rest of the body.
