Description:

Hi everyone,

Thank you for your time. We are running PostgreSQL 12.12 in a CRI-O
container on top of CephFS. A few days ago we noticed that DB startup was
failing with the following error:
```

```

- What could be the root cause of this issue? 
- Is this a known issue (I did search the archives but couldn't find it
though)? If yes, is this fixed in a PG 13, 14, 15?

Thank you
