Hey guys, sorry if this is slightly OT for this list, but I figure it's a
simple question. If I'm storing pg_xlog on a second non-redundant drive
using the symlink method and the journal drive were to crash, how difficult
is recovery? Will Postgresql simply be able to reinitialize the journal on a
new drive and carry on, or is there more to it than that? I realize any
pending transactions would be lost, but that's not a huge concern for me
because everything I'm importing comes from raw data.
Thanks,
Travis
