Problem stille here: during restore (from pg_dumpall on 11 on i386)
server on OPi crashed during CREATE INDEX phase. Some indexes and
triggers are missing.

SQL file has 16GB...

How can I prevent this in future (1), and (2) how to repair (maybe doing
dump/restore again?) the "slave" database?

I'd like to have a replica of my DB on laptop, especially after seeing
unrecoverable crash on OPi...
