It's not, but it functions like one. And ultimately, the destination *is* someplace different; likely the DBA will be piping the log output to another database somewhere. > log_message_format = 'INSERT INTO mytab VALUES(%this, %that, ...);' Yeah, good idea. > I wonder whether this could be defined in a way that lets it replace > log_line_prefix ... otherwise we have to think about the interaction of > the two facilities. Well, that's why I like the idea of using log_destination. It makes it clear that log_line_prefix doesn't work if log_destination <> 'stderr'. -- --Josh Josh Berkus Aglio Database Solutions San Francisco ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 8: explain analyze is your friend
