Thanks to all who responded to my question on querying on cluster index names.
I have another question. We are considering partitioning 2 or 3 of our larger tables.
Each has 12 million or more rows. We want to partition on customer_id and build
Primary key indexes on each of the children partitions which inherit column characteristics
From the master table. This would resolve any issues about queries on customer-id.
My question is this: How would I handle a query that queries
On another Non-partitioned column, say, ENTRY_DATE? Could I design an index
On the master table that would reference ENTRY-DATE across partitions or will
I need to build indexes and queries on each partition?
Thank you for your time,
Mark Steben

Subject: Question
I am very new to PostgreSQL. Is it appropriate to pose questions to this email list?
I am trying to come up with a query that will list the names of the database indexes that
Have been chosen as clustering indexes. I know I can get the INDEXRELID from PG.INDEX
But have yet to figure out how to get the index name from there. Any help would be appreciated.
And, if this is not an appropriate forum to ask questions please tell me.
Thank you,
