the pg_stat_activity view, returns a set of records
containing all the available information about each backend process.
Sometimes it may be more convenient to obtain just a subset of this
- information. In such cases, an older set of per-backend statistics
+ information. In such cases, another set of per-backend statistics
access functions can be used; these are shown in
linkend="monitoring-stats-backend-funcs-table"/>.
- These access functions use a backend ID number, which ranges from one
- to the number of currently active backends.
+ These access functions use the session's backend ID number, which is a
+ small positive integer that is distinct from the backend ID of any
+ concurrent session, although a session's ID can be recycled as soon as
+ it exits. The backend ID is used, among other things, to identify the
+ session's temporary schema if it has one.
The function pg_stat_get_backend_idset provides a
- convenient way to generate one row for each active backend for
+ convenient way to list all the active backends' ID numbers for
invoking these functions. For example, to show the
PIDs and
current queries of all backends:
-SELECT pg_stat_get_backend_pid(s.backendid) AS pid,
- pg_stat_get_backend_activity(s.backendid) AS query
- FROM (SELECT pg_stat_get_backend_idset() AS backendid) AS s;
+SELECT pg_stat_get_backend_pid(backendid) AS pid,
+ pg_stat_get_backend_activity(backendid) AS query
+FROM pg_stat_get_backend_idset() AS backendid;
