Hi! I have a table containing data and a column which holds information on which compute-node processes the data. In a given interval I'd like to request some data from this table and mark these returned rows by setting the "process_node" column to the node-name, which asked for data. There may also be rows which have the column process_node set to the name of the node currently asking.
What I tried was something like this, which gave me a syntax error: SELECT * FROM ( UPDATE ta SET process_node='nodename' WHERE a>10 AND process_node is null RETURNING * ) AS ta JOIN someothertable ON ... Can I somehow select some rows and do multiple operations on exactly this resultset? In my case update columns, then join columns from other tables and then return the resultset with the joined columns?
