SHOW PLACEMENT FOR

SHOW PLACEMENT FOR summarizes all placement options, and presents them in the canonical form for a specific table, database schema, or partition.

The statement returns a result set in which the Scheduling_State field indicates the current progress that the Placement Driver (PD) has made in scheduling the placement:

• PENDING: The PD has not yet started scheduling the placement. This might indicate that that the placement rules are semantically correct, but cannot currently be satisfied by the cluster. For example, if FOLLOWERS=4 but there are only 3 TiKV stores that are candidates for followers.
• INPROGRESS: The PD is currently scheduling the placement.
• SCHEDULED: The PD has successfully scheduled the placement.
