Postgres 卡在恢复模式

Question

我有一个处于恢复模式的 PostgreSQL 独立实例。一直在说

2014-03-24 18:45:57 MDT FATAL:  the database system is starting up

几个小时，并ps显示：

postgres  2637  0.1  0.1 116916  4420 ?        Ds   15:43   0:18 postgres: startup process   recovering 00000001000000040000007E

有没有办法观察恢复的进度，最好是使用 ETA？我怎样才能让这个过程“解除卡住”？

我可以使用标准的启动/停止脚本停止 postgres，但是当我再次启动它时，它仍然停留在恢复模式。

Debian 7.4、Linux 内核 3.2.0、PostgreSQL 9.1.12

的输出strace -p 2637：

Process 2637 attached - interrupt to quit
close(154)                              = 0
getppid()                               = 2600
open("pg_clog/0003", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0600) = 154
lseek(154, 221184, SEEK_SET)            = 221184
write(154, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 8192) = 8192
fsync(154)                              = 0

上面的输出似乎无限重复。

一个 gdb 回溯（随后的三个 bts 几乎完全相同）：

如果我设置：

fsync = off

然后再次运行 bt：

Answer 1

在谷歌搜索了几个小时后，我偶然发现了一个与我的问题并不真正相关的线程，我能说的最好，但它似乎无害，可以尝试，瞧！

我看了看/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_clog，看到：

drwx------  2 postgres postgres   4096 Mar 15 15:20 .
drwx------ 13 postgres postgres   4096 Mar 25 12:15 ..
-rw-------  1 postgres postgres 262144 Feb  4 19:39 0000
-rw-------  1 postgres postgres 262144 Feb 13 11:10 0001
-rw-------  1 postgres postgres 262144 Mar 15 15:20 0002
-rw-------  1 postgres postgres 229376 Mar 25 14:51 0003

注意到/var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_clog/0003正在strace输出中打开/查找文件，并且这是论坛帖子中的相关文件，我在论坛中尝试了建议的操作：

dd if=/dev/zero bs=8k count=1 >> /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/pg_clog/0003

现在 postgres 又开始了。
