I can try ...

In related to this, after the failover we got several other worrying
messages in the log.

During vacuums lots of these:

WARNING:  relation "pg_largeobject" page 5333088 is uninitialized --- fixing

For several different tables. I gather that since these are mere WARNINGs
they do not affect the server functionality or data integrity? Then, for one
table we got:

ERROR:  unexpected chunk number 2 (expected 0) for toast value 4398162 in
pg_toast_1247555

which is quite worrying since we had to restore that table from backups. Are
these errors caused by the PANIC'd shutdown or are they a symptom of
something else. The servers are quite new and no server crashes have
happened.

Regards

Mikko
