Description

Contains information about parts of [MergeTree](/reference/engines/table-engines/mergetree-family/mergetree) dropped tables from [system.dropped\_tables](/reference/system-tables/dropped_tables) The schema of this table is the same as [system.parts](/reference/system-tables/parts)

Columns

* `partition` ([String](/reference/data-types/index)) — Partition identifier (string representation derived from the table partition key expression). * `name` ([String](/reference/data-types/index)) — Name of the data part. The part naming structure can be used to determine many aspects of the data, ingest, and merge patterns. The part naming format is the following: ```text theme={null} ____ ``` * Definitions: * `partition_id` - identifies the partition key * `minimum_block_number` - identifies the minimum block number in the part. ClickHouse always merges continuous blocks * `maximum_block_number` - identifies the maximum block number in the part * `level` - incremented by one with each additional merge on the part. A level of 0 indicates this is a new part that has not been merged. It is important to remember that all parts in ClickHouse are always immutable * `data_version` - optional value, incremented when a part is mutated (again, mutated data is always only written to a new part, since parts are immutable) - `uuid` ([UUID](/reference/data-types/index)) — The UUID of data part. - `part_type` ([String](/reference/data-types/index)) — The data part storing format. Possible values: `Wide` — each column is stored in a separate file, `Compact` — all columns are stored in one file. Data storing format is controlled by the `min_bytes_for_wide_part` and `min_rows_for_wide_part` settings of the MergeTree table. - `active` ([UInt8](/reference/data-types/index)) — Flag that indicates whether the data part is active. If a data part is active, it's used in a table. Otherwise, it's about to be deleted. Inactive data parts appear after merging and mutating operations. - `marks` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The number of marks. To get the approximate number of rows in a data part, multiply marks by the index granularity (usually 8192) (this hint does not work for adaptive granularity). - `rows` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The number of rows. - `files` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The number of files in the data part. - `bytes_on_disk` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — Total size of all the data part files in bytes. - `data_compressed_bytes` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — Total size of compressed data in the data part. All the auxiliary files (for example, files with marks) are not included. - `data_uncompressed_bytes` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — Total size of uncompressed data in the data part. All the auxiliary files (for example, files with marks) are not included. - `primary_key_size` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The amount of memory (in bytes) used by primary key values in the primary.idx/cidx file on disk. - `marks_bytes` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The size of the file with marks. - `secondary_indices_compressed_bytes` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — Total size of compressed data for secondary indices in the data part. All the auxiliary files (for example, files with marks) are not included. - `secondary_indices_uncompressed_bytes` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — Total size of uncompressed data for secondary indices in the data part. All the auxiliary files (for example, files with marks) are not included. - `secondary_indices_marks_bytes` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The size of the file with marks for secondary indices. - `modification_time` ([DateTime](/reference/data-types/index)) — The time the directory with the data part was modified. This usually corresponds to the time of data part creation. - `remove_time` ([DateTime](/reference/data-types/index)) — The time when the data part became inactive. - `refcount` ([UInt32](/reference/data-types/index)) — The number of places where the data part is used. A value greater than 2 indicates that the data part is used in queries or merges. - `min_date` ([Date](/reference/data-types/index)) — The minimum value of the date key in the data part. - `max_date` ([Date](/reference/data-types/index)) — The maximum value of the date key in the data part. - `min_time` ([DateTime](/reference/data-types/index)) — The minimum value of the date and time key in the data part. - `max_time` ([DateTime](/reference/data-types/index)) — The maximum value of the date and time key in the data part. - `partition_id` ([String](/reference/data-types/index)) — ID of the partition. - `min_block_number` ([Int64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The minimum number of data parts that make up the current part after merging. - `max_block_number` ([Int64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The maximum number of data parts that make up the current part after merging. - `level` ([UInt32](/reference/data-types/index)) — Depth of the merge tree. Zero means that the current part was created by insert rather than by merging other parts. - `data_version` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — Number that is used to determine which mutations should be applied to the data part (mutations with a version higher than data\_version). - `primary_key_bytes_in_memory` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The amount of memory (in bytes) used by primary key values. Will be 0 when `primary_key_lazy_load` is enabled and the key is not loaded. When non-zero the bytes live in the part itself and are accounted within `jemalloc.mergetree_arena.active_bytes`. They are NEVER counted in `PrimaryIndexCacheBytes` — those are mutually exclusive per part: an index lives either in the part (this metric) or in the shared `PrimaryIndexCache` (the other), depending on `primary_key_lazy_load` and `use_primary_key_cache`. - `primary_key_bytes_in_memory_allocated` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The amount of memory (in bytes) reserved for primary key values. Will be 0 when `primary_key_lazy_load` is enabled and the key is not loaded. When non-zero, included in `jemalloc.mergetree_arena.active_bytes`. See the note on `primary_key_bytes_in_memory` for the relationship with `PrimaryIndexCacheBytes`. - `index_granularity_bytes_in_memory` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The amount of memory (in bytes) used by index granularity values (will be 0 in case of primary\_key\_lazy\_load=1 and use\_primary\_key\_cache=1). When non-zero the bytes are part-owned and accounted within `jemalloc.mergetree_arena.active_bytes`. - `index_granularity_bytes_in_memory_allocated` ([UInt64](/reference/data-types/index)) — The amount of memory (in bytes) reserved for index granularity values (will be 0 in case of primary\_key\_lazy\_load=1 and use\_primary\_key\_cache=1). When non-zero, included in `jemalloc.mergetree_arena.active_bytes`. - `is_frozen` ([UInt8](/reference/data-types/index)) — Flag that shows that a partition data backup exists. 1, the backup exists. 0, the backup does not exist.

Each element describes the maximum key value for a TTL MOVE rule. - `default_compression_codec` ([String](/reference/data-types/index)) — The name of the codec used to compress this data part (in case when there is no explicit codec for columns). - `recompression_ttl_info.expression` ([Array(String)](/reference/data-types/index)) — The TTL expression. - `recompression_ttl_info.min` ([Array(DateTime)](/reference/data-types/index)) — The minimum value of the calculated TTL expression within this part. Used to understand whether we have at least one row with expired TTL. - `recompression_ttl_info.max` ([Array(DateTime)](/reference/data-types/index)) — The maximum value of the calculated TTL expression within this part.
