STV_INFLIGHT
Use the STV_INFLIGHT table to determine what queries are currently running on the cluster. STV_INFLIGHT does not show leader-node only queries. For more information, see Leader Node–Only Functions.
STV_INFLIGHT is visible to all users. Superusers can see all rows; regular users can see only their own data. For more information, see Visibility of Data in System Tables and Views.
Table Columns
| Column Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| userid | integer | ID of user who generated entry. |
| slice | integer | Slice where the query is running. |
| query | integer | Query ID. Can be used to join various other system tables and views. |
| label | character(30) | Either the name of the file used to run the query or a label defined with a SET QUERY_GROUP command. If the query is not file-based or the QUERY_GROUP parameter is not set, this field is blank. |
| xid | bigint | Transaction ID. |
| pid | integer | Process ID. All of the queries in a session are run in the same process, so this value remains constant if you run a series of queries in the same session. You can use this column to join to the STL_ERROR table. |
| starttime | timestamp | Time that the query started. |
| text | character(100) | Query text, truncated to 100 characters if the statement exceeds that limit. |
| suspended | integer | Whether the query is suspended or not. 0 = false; 1 = true. |
| insert_pristine | integer | Whether write queries are/were able to run while the current query is/was running. 1 = no write queries allowed. 0 = write queries allowed. This column is intended for use in debugging. |
Sample Queries
To view all active queries currently running on the database, type the following query:
select * from stv_inflight;
The sample output below shows two queries currently running, including the
STV_INFLIGHT query itself and a query that was run from a script called
avgwait.sql:
select slice, query, trim(label) querylabel, pid, starttime, substring(text,1,20) querytext from stv_inflight; slice|query|querylabel | pid | starttime | querytext -----+-----+-----------+-----+--------------------------+-------------------- 1011 | 21 | | 646 |2012-01-26 13:23:15.645503|select slice, query, 1011 | 20 |avgwait.sql| 499 |2012-01-26 13:23:14.159912|select avg(datediff( (2 rows)
