PG_PARTITION

relname

name

Names of the partitioned tables, table partitions, TOAST tables on table partitions, and index partitions

parttype

"char"

Object type

• r indicates a partitioned table.
• p indicates a table partition.
• x indicates an index partition.
• t indicates a TOAST table.

parentid

oid

OID of the partitioned table in PG_CLASS when the object is a partitioned table or table partition

OID of the partitioned index when the object is an index partition

rangenum

integer

Reserved field.

intervalnum

integer

Reserved field.

partstrategy

"char"

Partition policy of the partitioned table. The following policies are supported:

r indicates the range partition.

v indicates the numeric partition.

l: indicates the list partition.

relfilenode

oid

Physical storage locations of the table partition, index partition, and TOAST table on the table partition.

reltablespace

oid

OID of the tablespace containing the table partition, index partition, TOAST table on the table partition

relpages

double precision

Statistics: numbers of data pages of the table partition and index partition

reltuples

double precision

Statistics: numbers of tuples of the table partition and index partition

relallvisible

integer

Statistics: number of visible data pages of the table partition and index partition

reltoastrelid

oid

OID of the TOAST table corresponding to the table partition

reltoastidxid

oid

OID of the TOAST table index corresponding to the table partition

indextblid

oid

OID of the table partition corresponding to the index partition

indisusable

boolean

Whether the index partition is available

reldeltarelid

oid

OID of a Delta table

reldeltaidx

oid

OID of the index for a Delta table

relcudescrelid

oid

OID of a CU description table

relcudescidx

oid

OID of the index for a CU description table

relfrozenxid

xid32

Frozen transaction ID

To ensure forward compatibility, this column is reserved. The relfrozenxid64 column is added to record the information.

intspnum

integer

Number of tablespaces that the interval partition belongs to

partkey

int2vector

Column number of the partition key

intervaltablespace

oidvector

Tablespace that the interval partition belongs to. Interval partitions fall in the tablespaces in the round-robin manner.

interval

text[]

Interval value of the interval partition

boundaries

text[]

Upper boundary of the range partition and interval partition

transit

text[]

Transit of the interval partition

reloptions

text[]

Storage property of a partition used for collecting online scale-out information. Same as pg_class.reloptions, it is a keyword=value string.

relfrozenxid64

xid

Frozen transaction ID

boundexprs

pg_node_tree

Partition boundary expression.

• For range partitioning, it is the upper boundary expression of a partition.
• For list partitioning, it is a collection of partition boundary enumeration values.

The pg_node_tree data is not readable. You can use the expression pg_get_expr to translate the current column into readable information.
