Hi,

We have our production postgres 8.0.10 database running on linux x86_64
machine. Recently we have started getting an error from one of our
database while running vacuumdb. We are not getting this error during
backups just only during vacuuming of a database. Can anyone please help
us figure out why we are getting this error and how we can get rid of
it. Any help will be appreciated. 

Here is the error:
tst_021 ERROR:  invalid page header in block 8 of relation
"securityevent_pkey"


Thanks
Paramjeet Bhella

Well, since it's just an index, you should be able to fix it by
reindexing.  But I'd worry a bit about what caused the corruption.
8.0.10 is not exactly current --- you should update to 8.0.latest.
And running some memory and disk diagnostics might not be wasted
effort.
