I have a query which is not giving me the result even after 30 minutes. I want to know how to detect what is going and what’s wrong ?
EXPLAIN query - gives me the following:
controlsmartdb=# explain select report_id, dm_ip, dm_mac, dm_user, dm_os, report_time, sys_name, sys_user, sys_user_domain, ss_key, login_time, role_id, new_vlan_id from repcopy as a where report_time = (select max(report_time) from repcopy as b where a.dm_ip = b.dm_ip and a.dm_user=b.dm_user and b.ss_key != '') and report_status = 0 and dm_user = 'u1';
QUERY PLAN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seq Scan on repcopy a (cost=0.00..1630178118.35 rows=35 width=133)
Filter: ((report_status = 0) AND ((dm_user)::text = 'u1'::text) AND (report_time = (subplan)))
SubPlan
-> Aggregate (cost=8151.65..8151.66 rows=1 width=8)
-> Seq Scan on repcopy b (cost=0.00..8151.65 rows=1 width=8)
Filter: ((($0)::text = (dm_ip)::text) AND (($1)::text = (dm_user)::text) AND ((ss_key)::text <> ''::text))
(6 rows)
But EXPLAIN ANALYSE query hangs (is not giving me any output even after 30 minutes).
Pg_stat_activity shows this - SELECT procpid, usename, current_query, query_start from pg_stat_activity:
2942 | postgres | select report_id, dm_ip, dm_mac, dm_user, dm_os, report_time, sys_name, sys_user, sys_user_domain, ss_key, login_time, role_id, new_vlan_id from repcopy as a where report_time = (select max(report_time) from repcopy as b where a.dm_ip = b.dm_ip and a.dm_user=b.dm_user and b.ss_key != '') and report_status = 0 and dm_user = 'u1'; | 2010-04-13 18:20:02.828623+05:30
In such a case what can I do ?
