It has 4 modern and fast CPU, I think more likely is this: 1. The restore run loads a lot of data into a table. 2. The autovacuum daemon notices all the inserts and starts an auto-analyze run. 3. The restore run gets to the part where it tries to create indexes on the table. This requires a ShareLock if memory serves, which conflicts with the ShareUpdateExclusive lock that ANALYZE is holding. Rather than making a foreground process wait for autovacuum, we kick autovacuum off its lock by aborting the auto-analyze. Hence the message(s). 4. The un-analyzed inserts are still there, so some future autovacuum cycle will try again. In short, yeah, you should just ignore these log messages. regards, tom lane
