Thank you Michael for the reply.
Here is the other log from pg_log directory

When i see check the this file, the file itself exists but the size is "0" byte.
The server is writing the whole log in to the mounted network storage, NFS. I have scanned the storage for any errors and nothing found.
I will consider your suggestion to upgrade the PostgreSQL version.

Don't you have more details to share? There should be some hint here
as well, and usually you may be facing such things because of OS or
hardware problems.

If you are facing hardware problems, this may be a time to deploy a
backup and replay WAL up to where you wish to on clean disks.

9.0.4 has been released in 2011, so you are missing 4 years worth of
bug fixes, the latest minor version of the 9.0.X release being 9.0.19.
Note as well that 9.0 will be EOL at the end of the year, hence you
could do even better: an upgrade to a newer major version.
