one of our servers did accidently run out of discspace during a huge data load. Postmaster closed the connection with `no space left on device, cannot write x_log' or something similar. We have fsync=false on that machine. Do we have to fear data corruption?


No.  The reason PG treats out-of-xlog-space as a PANIC is exactly so
that it won't do anything it can't log safely.  Once you get past the
postmaster restart you're fine.
