Re: Can Postgres 8.x start if some disks containing tablespaces are not mounted?

Morris Goldstein napsal(a):

But that makes me wonder: what about this sequence of events:

- Postgres running normally on /dev/sda and /dev/sdb.
- Update to table in /dev/sdb tablespace is committed but still exists in WAL.
- Postgres crashes (e.g. power failure).
- Postgres starts with /dev/sda only.
- Recovery needs to update table in /dev/sdb tablespace.

I assume bad things will happen in this case.

yes, Probably best solution in this case is to implemented tablespace availability into postgreSQL and PostgreSQL shouldn't start when tablespace is missing.
