  Error opening database log extent NNNN.
  
  This can typically happen when an online backup need to include
  a log file that was meanwhile archived and deleted.
  We have also seen the message when log files have to be
  reclaimed. As such this is typically not an error situation, but
  expected.
  
  An db2diag.log message that indicates an ERROR will typically
  alert the DBA and should be avoided if there is no problem.
  We will revisit the error handling in sqlpgOpenLogExtent to
  avoid this problem in the future.
  

Local fix

• Ignore the error message if there are no other problems
