Hi all,

I need to check that my database has not physical / logical corruption.

I think that "vacuumdb -all -freeze -analyze" will do this for me.

Am I right?

Are there other command / utility that I should do to check corruptions?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Gabriele Fagnani

The only good test is to run a pg_dumpall and restore the dump into a new
PostgreSQL cluster.
