xmin increasing within a transaction block?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,
I suspect this has a trivial explaination, but this is what I'm experiencing:

> CREATE TABLE foo( i int );
> BEGIN;
* > INSERT INTO foo(i) VALUES( 1 );
* > INSERT INTO foo(i) VALUES( 2 );
* > SELECT xmin, cmin, xmax, cmax, i FROM foo;
 xmin | cmin | xmax | cmax | i
------+------+------+------+---
 2466 |    0 |    0 |    0 | 1
 2467 |    1 |    0 |    1 | 2
(2 rows)

* > SELECT txid_current();
 txid_current
--------------
         2465
(1 row)


Why is xmin greater than the current transaction id (and most notably
not "fixed")?
What am I missing here?
I'm running 9.6.5.

> select version();
