Table columns

Column name Data type Description
xid integer Transaction ID of the query or subquery.
task integer ID used to track a query through the workload manager. Can be associated with multiple query IDs. If a query is restarted, the query is assigned a new query ID but not a new task ID.
query integer Query ID. If a query is restarted, the query is assigned a new query ID but not a new task ID.
service_class integer ID for the service class. For a list of service class IDs, see WLM service class IDs.
slot_count integer Number of WLM query slots.
wlm_start_time timestamp Time that the query entered the system table queue or short query queue.
state character(16) Current state of the query or subquery.

Possible values are the following:

  • Classified – Query has been assigned to a service class.

  • Completed – Query is finished running. The query either ran successfully or was canceled. For the final state, check the results of STL_QUERY.

  • Dequeued – Internal use only.

  • Evicted – Query has been evicted from the service class for restart.

  • Evicting – Query is being evicted from the service class for restart.

  • Initialized – Internal use only.

  • Invalid – Internal use only.

  • Queued – Query was sent to the query queue because no slots were available to run it.

  • QueuedWaiting – Query is waiting in the query queue.

  • Rejected – Internal use only.

  • Running – Query is running.

  • TaskAssigned – Internal use only.
queue_time bigint Number of microseconds that the query has spent in the queue.

Sample query

The following query displays all currently executing queries in service classes greater than 4. For a list of service class IDs, see WLM service class IDs.

select xid, query, trim(state) as state, queue_time, exec_time
from stv_wlm_query_state
where service_class > 4;

This query returns the following sample output: 

xid    | query | state   | queue_time | exec_time 
-------+-------+---------+------------+-----------
100813 | 25942 | Running |          0 |    1369029
100074 | 25775 | Running |          0 | 2221589242
