Re: Partially corrupted table



No, I'm sure is it not a HW problem. I tested the same DB cluster on two different machines. The error is exactly the same.
I can send you the cluster if you tell me how and where to send 30M file.

Thanks for reply

I think you've got hardware problems.  Getting different answers from
successive scans of the same table is really hard to explain any other
way.  memtest86 and badblocks are commonly suggested for testing memory
and disk respectively on Linux machines.
