I have been experimenting with pg_standby with the primay copying files to a nfs folder mounted from a special server on the standby. Inevitably, the following happens: LOG: restored log file "0000000100000000000000E7" from archive LOG: restored log file "0000000100000000000000E8" from archive LOG: restored log file "0000000100000000000000E9" from archive LOG: could not fsync segment 0 of relation 1663/21119/2673: No such file or dir ectory CONTEXT: xlog redo checkpoint: redo 0/E9047EC8; undo 0/0; tli 1; xid 0/20369249 ; oid 24584; multi 1; offset 0; online FATAL: storage sync failed on magnetic disk: No such file or directory CONTEXT: xlog redo checkpoint: redo 0/E9047EC8; undo 0/0; tli 1; xid 0/20369249 ; oid 24584; multi 1; offset 0; online LOG: startup process (PID 30031) exited with exit code 1 LOG: aborting startup due to startup process failure LOG: logger shutting down I'm thinking one of two things is wrong, either I'm not mounting the nfs folder in a suitable way to do this, or I have to revert to shipping wal files with nc. anybody have any ideas? merlin
