Avoid calling contrib/amcheck functions with relations that are unsuitable for checking. Specifically, don't attempt verification of temporary relations, or indexes whose pg_index entry indicates that the index is invalid, or not ready. These relations are not supported by any of the contrib/amcheck functions, for reasons that are pretty fundamental. For example, the implementation of REINDEX CONCURRENTLY can add its own "transient" pg_index entries, which has rather unclear implications for the B-Tree verification functions, at least in the general case -- so they just treat it as an error. It falls to the amcheck caller (in this case pg_amcheck) to deal with the situation at a higher level. pg_amcheck now simply treats these conditions as additional "visibility concerns" when it queries system catalogs. This is a little arbitrary. It seems to have the least problems among any of the available alternatives.

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
