Hi,
We are using Postgres 7.4.5, and I'm trying to find a way to detect and gather deadlock information.
1) Which sql queries should I use to detect deadlocks while they are happening? I see the deadlock info on the log file, but I'd like to query the database to see them as they happen...
2) Which fields on which pg catalogs indicate a deadlock condition?
3) How can I get more info about the processes involved on deadlocks?
4) How can I get the sql statements associated with the processes involved on deadlocks?
On the logs I see the procpids of the processes involved on past deadlocks, but I 'd like to know how to get those procpids, and how to get the "current_query" associated with them...
Thank you in advance,
Andre Philippi
