If it's documented, I haven't found it yet. I generally find the labels to be pretty descriptive, though. "pg_control last modified" is the last time the server wrote control information out to the disk. "Time of latest checkpoint" is the last time a checkpoint had been performed at the point when the control data was last written. -Kevin -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
