Re: pg_restore fails when psql succeeds

The exact command is nothing fancy really. The complete exact command is
below

export PGPASSWORD=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
pg_restore --verbose --no-password --clean --if-exists -h 111.111.111.111
-p 5432 -U user -d blankdbfromstandardtemplate0 /PATH/EXPORTEDDIR 2>&1 |
tee logfile

I was able to import with pg_restore eventually after I disabled huge_pages
on the OS level. Huge pages were initially configured exactly as suggested
here:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/kernel-resources.html#LINUX-HUGE-PAGES.
This is a dedicated postgres DB server machine but I always verify memory
settings to leave a little wiggle room; postgresqltuner.pl report was clear.
