The B<Query> block defines one database query which may later be used by a
database definition. It accepts a single mandatory argument which specifies
the name of the query. The names of all queries have to be unique (see the
-B<MinPGVersion> and B<MaxPGVersion> options below for an exception to this
+B<MinVersion> and B<MaxVersion> options below for an exception to this
rule). The following configuration options are available to define the query:
In each B<Query> block, there is one or more B<Result> blocks. B<Result>
should be used. The first option specifies the data found in the first column,
the second option that of the second column, and so on.
-=item B<MinPGVersion> I<version>
+=item B<MinVersion> I<version>
-=item B<MaxPGVersion> I<version>
+=item B<MaxVersion> I<version>
Specify the minimum or maximum version of PostgreSQL that this query should be
used with. Some statistics might only be available with certain versions of
and patch-level versions, each represented as two-decimal-digit numbers. For
example, version 8.2.3 will become 80203.
+=item B<MinPGVersion> I<version>

+=item B<MaxPGVersion> I<version>

+These are deprecated synonyms for B<MinVersion> and B<MaxVersion>
+respectively. They will be removed in version 5 of collectd.
