crdb_internal

On this page

The crdb_internal system catalog is a schema that contains information about internal objects, processes, and metrics related to a specific database. crdb_internal tables are read-only.

Tables

Warning:

Do not use the crdb_internal tables marked with ✗ in production environments for the following reasons:

The contents of these tables are unstable, and subject to change in new releases of CockroachDB, without prior notice.
There are memory and latency costs associated with each table in crdb_internal. Accessing the tables in the schema can impact cluster stability and performance.

To view the schema and query examples for a table supported in production, click the table name.

Query `crdb_internal` tables

To get detailed information about objects, processes, or metrics related to your database, you can read from the crdb_internal table that corresponds to the item of interest.

Tip:

To ensure that you can view all of the tables in crdb_internal, query the tables as a user with the admin role.
Unless specified otherwise, queries to crdb_internal assume the current database.

For example, to return the crdb_internal table for the index usage statistics of the movr database, you can use the following statement:

> SELECT * FROM movr.crdb_internal.index_usage_statistics;

  table_id | index_id | total_reads |           last_read

View the tables/indexes with the most time under contention

To view the tables and indexes with the most cumulative time under contention since the last server restart, run the query below.

Note:

The default tracing behavior captures a small percent of transactions, so not all contention events will be recorded. When investigating transaction contention, you can set the sql.trace.txn.enable_threshold cluster setting to always capture contention events.

WITH c AS (SELECT DISTINCT ON (table_id, index_id) table_id, index_id, num_contention_events AS events, cumulative_contention_time AS time FROM crdb_internal.cluster_contention_events) SELECT i.descriptor_name, i.index_name, c.events, c.time FROM crdb_internal.table_indexes AS i JOIN c ON i.descriptor_id = c.table_id AND i.index_id = c.index_id ORDER BY c.time DESC LIMIT 10;

  descriptor_name |   index_name   | events |      time
------------------+----------------+--------+------------------
  warehouse       | warehouse_pkey |      7 | 00:00:01.046293

(The output above is for a local cluster running the TPC-C workload at a --concurrency of 256.)

`cluster_locks`

The crdb_internal.cluster_locks schema contains information about locks held by transactions on specific keys. Queries acquire locks on keys within transactions, or they wait until they can acquire locks until other transactions have released locks on those keys.

For more information, see the following sections.

Cluster locks columns

Count queries waiting on locks

Cluster locks columns

The crdb_internal.cluster_locks table has the following columns that describe each lock:

Column	Type	Description
`range_id`	`INT`	The ID of the range that stores the key the lock is being acquired on.
`table_id`	`INT`	The ID of the table that includes the key the lock is being acquired on.
`database_name`	`STRING`	The name of the database that includes the key the lock is being acquired on.
`schema_name`	`STRING`	The name of the schema that includes the key this lock is being acquired on.
`table_name`	`STRING`	The name of the table that includes the key this lock is being acquired on.
`index_name`	`STRING`	The name of the index that includes the key this lock is being acquired on.
`lock_key`	`BYTES`	The actual key that this lock is being acquired on.
`lock_key_pretty`	`STRING`	A string representation of the key this lock is being acquired on.
`txn_id`	`UUID`	The ID of the transaction that is acquiring this lock.
`ts`	`TIMESTAMP`	The timestamp at which this lock was acquired.
`lock_strength`	`STRING`	The strength of this lock. Allowed values: `"Exclusive"` or `"None"` (read-only requests don't need an exclusive lock).
`durability`	`STRING`	Whether the lock is one of: `Replicated` or `Unreplicated`. For more information about lock replication, see types of locking.
`granted`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether this lock has been granted to the transaction requesting it.
`contended`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether multiple transactions are trying to acquire a lock on this key.
`duration`	`INTERVAL`	The length of time this lock has been held for.

Tip:

You can see the types and default values of columns in this and other tables using SHOW COLUMNS FROM {table}.

Cluster locks - basic example

In this example, we'll use the SELECT FOR UPDATE statement to order two transactions by controlling concurrent access to a table. Then, we will look at the data in cluster_locks to see the locks being held by these transactions on the objects they are accessing.

This example assumes you are running a local unsecured cluster.

First, connect to the running cluster (call this Terminal 1):

cockroach sql --insecure

Next, create a table and insert some rows:

CREATE TABLE kv (k INT PRIMARY KEY, v INT);
INSERT INTO kv (k, v) VALUES (1, 5), (2, 10), (3, 15);

Next, we'll start a transaction and lock the row we want to operate on:

BEGIN;
SELECT * FROM kv WHERE k = 1 FOR UPDATE;

Press Enter twice in the SQL client to send the statements to be evaluated. This will result in the following output:

  k | v
+---+----+
  1 | 5
(1 row)

Now open another terminal and connect to the database from a second client (call this Terminal 2):

cockroach sql --insecure

From Terminal 2, start a transaction and try to lock the same row for updates that is already being accessed by the transaction we opened in Terminal 1:

BEGIN;
SELECT * FROM kv WHERE k = 1 FOR UPDATE;

Press Enter twice to send the statements to be evaluated. Because Terminal 1 has already locked this row, the SELECT FOR UPDATE statement from Terminal 2 will appear to "wait".

Now that we have two transactions both trying to update the kv table, let's query the data in crdb_internal.cluster_locks. We should see two locks:

SELECT database_name, table_name, txn_id, ts, lock_key_pretty, lock_strength, granted, contended FROM crdb_internal.cluster_locks WHERE table_name = 'kv';

  database_name | table_name |                txn_id                |             ts             | lock_key_pretty  | lock_strength | granted | contended
----------------+------------+--------------------------------------+----------------------------+------------------+---------------+---------+------------
  defaultdb     | kv         | d11a08c4-a3a2-4bdb-bf10-8d2373426faf | 2022-07-27 18:57:06.808046 | /Table/107/1/1/0 | Exclusive     |  true   |   true
  defaultdb     | kv         | 34ebadb6-99f1-4547-b487-4b322506b7fe | 2022-07-27 18:57:13.173556 | /Table/107/1/1/0 | Exclusive     |  false  |   true
(2 rows)

As expected, there are two locks. This is the case because:

The transaction with the SELECT FOR UPDATE query in Terminal 1 asked for an Exclusive lock on a row in the defaultdb.kv table, as shown in the lock_strength column. We can see that it was able to get that lock, since the granted column is true.
The transaction in Terminal 2 is also trying to lock the same row in the kv table with a lock_strength of Exclusive. However, the value of the granted column is false, which means it could not get the exclusive lock yet, and is waiting on the lock from the query in Terminal 1 to be released before it can proceed.

Further, both transactions show the contended column as true, since these transactions are both trying to update rows in the defaultdb.kv table at the same time.

The following more complex query shows additional information about lockholders, sessions, and waiting queries. This may be useful on a busy cluster for figuring out which transactions from which clients are trying to grab locks. Note that joining with cluster_queries will only show queries currently in progress.

SELECT
    sessions.session_id,
    sessions.client_address,
    sessions.application_name,
    locks.txn_id,
    queries.query_id AS waiting_query_id,
    queries.query AS waiting_query,
    locks.lock_key_pretty,
    locks.ts,
    locks.database_name,
    locks.schema_name,
    locks.table_name,
    locks.lock_strength,
    locks.granted,
    locks.contended
FROM
    crdb_internal.cluster_locks AS locks
    JOIN crdb_internal.cluster_sessions AS sessions ON
            locks.txn_id::STRING = sessions.kv_txn
    LEFT JOIN crdb_internal.cluster_queries AS queries ON
            locks.txn_id = queries.txn_id

              session_id            | client_address  | application_name |                txn_id                |         waiting_query_id         |              waiting_query              | lock_key_pretty  |             ts             | database_name | schema_name | table_name | lock_strength | granted | contended
-----------------------------------+-----------------+------------------+--------------------------------------+----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+------------------+----------------------------+---------------+-------------+------------+---------------+---------+------------

(2 rows)

The output is similar to querying cluster_locks alone, except you can see the text of the SQL queries whose transactions are waiting on other transactions to finish, with additional information about the clients that initiated those transactions.

Note:

Locks are held by transactions, not queries. A lock can be acquired by a transaction as a result of a query, but CockroachDB does not track which query in a transaction caused that transaction to acquire a lock.

Cluster locks - intermediate example

This example assumes you have a cluster in the state it was left in by the previous example.

In this example you will run a workload on the cluster with multiple concurrent transactions using the bank workload. With a sufficiently high concurrency setting, the bank workload will frequently attempt to update multiple accounts at the same time. This will create plenty of locks to view in the crdb_internal.cluster_locks table.

Initialize the workload:

cockroach workload init bank 'postgresql://root@localhost:26257/bank?sslmode=disable'

Run it at a high concurrency setting:

cockroach workload run bank --concurrency=128 --duration=3m 'postgresql://root@localhost:26257/bank?sslmode=disable'

While the workload is running, issue the following query to view a subset of the locks being requested:

SELECT
    database_name,
    table_name,
    txn_id,
    ts,
    lock_key_pretty,
    lock_strength,
    granted,
    contended
FROM
    crdb_internal.cluster_locks
WHERE table_name = 'bank'
LIMIT
    10

(10 rows)

As in the basic example, you can see that some transactions that wanted locks on the bank table are having to wait (granted is false), usually because they are trying to operate on the same rows as one or more other transactions (contended is true).

Note:

Locks are held by transactions, not queries. A lock can be acquired by a transaction as a result of a query within that transaction, but CockroachDB does not track which query in a transaction caused that transaction to acquire a lock.

Blocked vs. blocking transactions

Run the query below to display a list of pairs of transactions that are holding and waiting on locks for the same keys.

`index_usage_statistics`

Contains one row for each index in the current database surfacing usage statistics for that specific index. This view is updated every time a transaction is committed. Each user-submitted statement on the specified index is counted as a use of that index and increments corresponding counters in this view. System and internal queries (such as scans for gathering statistics) are not counted.

Column	Type	Description
`table_id`	`INT8`	Unique table identifier.
`index_id`	`INT8`	Unique index identifier.
`total_reads`	`INT8`	Number of times an index was selected for a read.
`last_read`	`TIMESTAMPTZ`	Time of last read.

You can reset the index usages statistics by invoking the function crdb_internal.reset_index_usage_stats(). For example:

SELECT crdb_internal.reset_index_usage_stats();

Determine which indexes haven't been used in the past week

To determine if there are indexes that have become stale and are no longer needed, show which indexes haven't been used during the past week with the following query:

SELECT  ti.descriptor_name as table_name, ti.index_name, total_reads
FROM  crdb_internal.index_usage_statistics AS us
JOIN crdb_internal.table_indexes ti
ON us.index_id = ti.index_id AND us.table_id = ti.descriptor_id
WHERE last_read < NOW() - INTERVAL '1 WEEK'
ORDER BY total_reads desc;

Determine which indexes are no longer used

View which indexes are no longer used with the following query:

SELECT  ti.descriptor_name as table_name, ti.index_name, total_reads
FROM crdb_internal.index_usage_statistics AS us
JOIN crdb_internal.table_indexes ti
ON us.index_id = ti.index_id AND us.table_id = ti.descriptor_id
WHERE total_reads = 0;

`statement_statistics`

Column	Type	Description
`aggregated_ts`	`TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL`	The time that statistics aggregation started.
`fingerprint_id`	`BYTES NOT NULL`	Unique identifier of the statement statistics. This is constructed using the statement fingerprint text, and statement metadata (e.g., query type, database name, etc.)
`transaction_fingerprint_id`	`BYTES NOT NULL`	Uniquely identifies a transaction statistics. The transaction fingerprint ID that this statement statistic belongs to.
`plan_hash`	`BYTES NOT NULL`	Uniquely identifies a query plan that was executed by the current statement. The query plan can be retrieved from the `sampled_plan` column.
`app_name`	`STRING NOT NULL`	The name of the application that executed the statement.
`metadata`	`JSONB NOT NULL`	Metadata that describes the statement. See `metadata` column.
`statistics`	`JSONB NOT NULL`	Statistics for the statement. See `statistics` column.
`sampled_plan`	`JSONB NOT NULL`	The sampled query plan of the current statement statistics. This column is unfilled if there is no sampled query plan.
`aggregation_interval`	`INTERVAL NOT NULL`	The interval over which statistics are aggregated.
`index_recommendations`	`STRING[] NOT NULL`	An array of strings containing index recommendations of the format `{type} : {sql query}`.

`fingerprint_id` column

The value is in hexadecimal format. The following examples show how to use this value to query statement_statistics:

Add the escape character \x at the start of the fingerprint_id:

> SELECT * FROM crdb_internal.statement_statistics WHERE fingerprint_id='\x97ffc170783445fd';

Encode the fingerprint_id as hex:

> SELECT * FROM crdb_internal.statement_statistics WHERE encode(fingerprint_id, 'hex')='97ffc170783445fd';

`metadata` column

Field	Type	Description
`db`	`STRING`	The database on which the statement is executed.
`distsql`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether the statement is being executed by the Distributed SQL (DistSQL) engine.
`failed`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether the statement execution failed.
`fullScan`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether the statement performed a full scan of the table.
`implicitTxn`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether the statement executed in an implicit transaction.
`query`	`STRING`	The statement string.
`querySummary`	`STRING`	The statement string summary.
`stmtTyp`	`STRING`	The type of SQL statement: `"TypeDDL"`, `"TypeDML"`, `"TypeDCL"`, or `"TypeTCL"`. These types map to the CockroachDB statement types data definition language (DDL), data manipulation language (DML), data control language (DCL), and transaction control language (TCL).
`vec`	`BOOLEAN`	Whether the statement executed in the vectorized query engine.

`statistics` column

The DB Console Statements and Statement Fingerprint pages display information from statistics.

The statistics column contains a JSONB object with statistics and execution_statistics subobjects. statistics are always populated and are updated each time a new statement of that statement fingerprint is executed. execution_statistics are collected using sampling. CockroachDB probabilistically runs a query with tracing enabled to collect fine-grained statistics of the query execution.

The NumericStat type tracks two running values: the running mean mean and the running sum of squared differences sqDiff from the mean. You can use these statistics along with the total number of values to compute the variance using Welford's method. CockroachDB computes the variance and displays it along with mean in the Statements table.

Field	Type	Description
`execution_statistics -> cnt`	`INT64`	The number of times execution statistics were recorded.
`execution_statistics -> contentionTime -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The time (in seconds) the statement spent contending for resources before being executed.
`execution_statistics -> cpuSQLNanos -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The amount of CPU time spent executing the statement in nanoseconds. The CPU time represents the time spent and work done within SQL execution operators. The CPU time includes time spent in the SQL layer. It does not include time spent in the storage layer.
`execution_statistics -> maxDiskUsage -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The maximum temporary disk usage (in bytes) that occurred while executing this statement. This is set in cases where a query had to spill to disk, e.g., when performing a large sort where not all of the tuples fit in memory.
`execution_statistics -> maxMemUsage -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The maximum memory usage (in bytes) that occurred on a node.
`execution_statistics -> networkBytes -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The number of bytes sent over the network.
`execution_statistics -> networkMsgs -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The number of messages sent over the network.
`statistics -> bytesRead -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The number of bytes read from disk.
`statistics -> cnt`	`INT8`	The total number of times this statement was executed since the begin of the aggregation period.
`statistics -> firstAttemptCnt`	`INT8`	The total number of times a first attempt was executed (either the one time in explicitly committed statements, or the first time in implicitly committed statements with implicit retries).
`statistics -> idleLat -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The time (in seconds) spent waiting for the client to send the statement while holding the transaction open. A high wait time indicates that you should revisit the entire transaction and batch your statements.
`statistics -> indexes`	Array of `String`	The list of indexes used by the statement. Each index has the format `{tableID}@{indexID}`.
`statistics -> lastErrorCode`	`String`	The PostgreSQL Error Code from the last failed execution of the statement fingerprint.
`statistics -> lastExecAt`	`TIMESTAMP`	The last timestamp the statement was executed.
`statistics -> maxRetries`	`INT8`	The maximum observed number of automatic retries in the aggregation period.
`statistics -> nodes`	Array of `INT64`	An ordered list of nodes IDs on which the statement was executed.
`statistics -> numRows -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The number of rows returned or observed.
`statistics -> ovhLat -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The difference (in seconds) between `svcLat` and the sum of `parseLat+planLat+runLat` latencies.
`statistics -> parseLat -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The time (in seconds) to transform the SQL string into an abstract syntax tree (AST).
`statistics -> planGists`	`String`	A sequence of bytes representing the flattened tree of operators and various operator specific metadata of the statement plan.
`statistics -> planLat -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The time (in seconds) to transform the AST into a logical query plan.
`statistics -> rowsRead -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The number of rows read from disk.
`statistics -> rowsWritten -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The number of rows written to disk.
`statistics -> runLat -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The time (in seconds) to run the query and fetch or compute the result rows.
`statistics -> svcLat -> [mean\|sqDiff]`	`NumericStat`	The time (in seconds) to service the query, from start of parse to end of execute.

Detect suboptimal and regressed plans

Historical plans are stored in plan gists in statistics->'statistics'->'planGists'. To detect suboptimal and regressed plans over time you can compare plans for the same query by extracting them from the plan gists.

Suppose you wanted to compare plans of the following query:

SELECT
  name, count(rides.id) AS sum
FROM
  users JOIN rides ON users.id = rides.rider_id
WHERE
  rides.start_time BETWEEN '2018-12-31 00:00:00' AND '2020-01-01 00:00:00'
GROUP BY
  name
ORDER BY
  sum DESC
LIMIT
  10;

To decode plan gists, use the crdb_internal.decode_plan_gist function, as shown in the following query. The example shows the performance impact of adding an index on the start_time column in the rides table. The first row of the output shows the improved performance (reduced number of rows read and latency) after the index was added. The second row shows the query, which performs a full scan on the rides table, before the index was added.

SELECT
substring(metadata ->> 'query',1,60) AS statement_text,
  string_agg(  crdb_internal.decode_plan_gist(statistics->'statistics'->'planGists'->>0), '
  ') AS plan,
  max(aggregated_ts) as timestamp_interval,
  max(statistics -> 'statistics' -> 'rowsRead' -> 'mean') AS num_rows_read_mean,
  max(statistics -> 'statistics' -> 'runLat' -> 'mean') AS runtime_latency_mean,
  statistics->'statistics'->'planGists'->>0 as plan_id
FROM movr.crdb_internal.statement_statistics
WHERE substring(metadata ->> 'query',1,35)='SELECT name, count(rides.id) AS sum'
group by metadata ->> 'query', statistics->'statistics'->'planGists'->>0;

                         statement_text                        |                        plan                         |   timestamp_interval   | num_rows_read_mean | runtime_latency_mean |                     plan_id

`transaction_contention_events`

Contains one row for each transaction contention event.

Requires either the VIEWACTIVITY or VIEWACTIVITYREDACTED system privilege (or the legacy VIEWACTIVITY or VIEWACTIVITYREDACTED role option) to access. If you have the VIEWACTIVITYREDACTED privilege, contending_key will be redacted. If you have both VIEWACTIVITY and VIEWACTIVITYREDACTED, the latter takes precedence and contending_key will be redacted.

Contention events are stored in memory. You can control the amount of contention events stored per node via the sql.contention.event_store.capacity cluster setting.

The sql.contention.event_store.duration_threshold cluster setting specifies the minimum contention duration to cause the contention events to be collected into the crdb_internal.transaction_contention_events table. The default value is 0. If contention event collection is overwhelming the CPU or memory you can raise this value to reduce the load.

Column	Type	Description
`collection_ts`	`TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL`	The timestamp when the transaction contention event was collected.
`blocking_txn_id`	`UUID NOT NULL`	The ID of the blocking transaction. You can join this column into the `cluster_contention_events` table.
`blocking_txn_fingerprint_id`	`BYTES NOT NULL`	The ID of the blocking transaction fingerprint. To surface historical information about the transactions that caused the contention, you can join this column into the `statement_statistics` and `transaction_statistics` tables to surface historical information about the transactions that caused the contention.
`waiting_txn_id`	`UUID NOT NULL`	The ID of the waiting transaction. You can join this column into the `cluster_contention_events` table.
`waiting_txn_fingerprint_id`	`BYTES NOT NULL`	The ID of the waiting transaction fingerprint. To surface historical information about the transactions that caused the contention, you can join this column into the `statement_statistics` and `transaction_statistics` tables.
`contention_duration`	`INTERVAL NOT NULL`	The interval of time the waiting transaction spent waiting for the blocking transaction.
`contending_key`	`BYTES NOT NULL`	The key on which the transactions contended.
