The attached utility produces output like this: $ pg_controldata pg_control version number: 71 Catalog version number: 200101061 Database state: IN_PRODUCTION pg_control last modified: Sat Mar 10 00:07:55 2001 Current log file id: 0 Next log file segment: 9 Latest checkpoint location: 0/88CAA20 Prior checkpoint location: 0/70A5D48 Latest checkpoint's REDO location: 0/88CAA20 Latest checkpoint's UNDO location: 0/0 Latest checkpoint's StartUpID: 22 Latest checkpoint's NextXID: 4711 Latest checkpoint's NextOID: 444704 Time of latest checkpoint: Sat Mar 10 00:07:52 2001 Database block size: 8192 Blocks per segment of large relation: 131072 LC_COLLATE: C LC_CTYPE: C To access the pg_control file, the program must be run as the Postgres user, and PGDATA must be set correctly in its environment. -- Oliver Elphick <olly@lfix.co.uk>
