Hi, I am using PSQL on RedHat Linux 6.2...version given below. [PostgreSQL 7.4.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC egcs-2.91.6] I inserted a new DB with somewhere around 200 tables and each table having some 100 entries. The table insertion went fine. But I wanted to know whether the DB is perfect ...I mean my DB is not corrupted. Are there any tools/commands to check whether my DB is not corrupted? Once I did a kill -9 <postgres pids> and my DB got corrupted. I am looking for some tools that will say the status of my DB. Thanks in advance, Anil. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
