It seems to me exactly our way. In the first place I doubt
"(not-set)" fits the place for timestamp even in English.
Moreover, if we (I?) translated the message into Japanese, it would
look like;
CONTEXT: (not-set)にトランザクション 2352314 内で "TRUNCATE" でのリモートデータの処理中
I don't think that looks fine. Translating "(not-set)" makes things
even worse.
CONTEXT: (非設定)にトランザクション 2352314 内で "TRUNCATE" でのリモートデータの処理中
Yes, I can alleviate that strangeness a bit by modulating it, but it
still looks odd.
CONTEXT: 時刻(非設定)、トランザクション 2352314 内で "TRUNCATE" でのリモートデータの処理中
Rather, I'd prefer simply to list the attributes.
CONTEXT: processing remote data during "MESSAGE". Transaction (unknown). Time (unknown), replication target relation
(unknown),column (unknown)
CONTEXT: "MESSAGE"でのリモートデータの処理中. トランザクション (不明). 時刻 (不明), レプリケーション対象リレーション (不明), column (不明)
regards.
