Hi Carol,
I don't have answer...
I have had a similar problem and whatever I
did didn't work. As I recall, the files in
pg_clog directory started from 0000 and the
number got bigger by 1 (hex) and there was
a gap between the most recent one and the
second recent one. (Is that how you know
that you are missing about 30 files?) I
suspect the reason why it didn't work for me
was because the last file was incomplete. I
wound up upgrading to the latest postgres and
restored from a backup file I made by pg_dumpall.
My platform is linux (do I recall yours is solaris?)
and the postgres version I was running was 8.3.0.
The lesson I learned was to keep an eye on the
pg_clog directory. Since the installation of
8.3.3 there has been only one file (0000), though
the size keeps growing (I think by 8k bytes).
My two bits.

Subject: [ADMIN] Missing pg_clog files
I'm missing about 30 pg_clog files. How do I recover from this?
