Hi Luke,

Does Greenplum support DISTINCT ON? Specifically,

SELECT j.*, cl.*, ag.*, sub.jlgstatus
FROM pgagent.pga_job j JOIN
pgagent.pga_jobclass cl ON cl.jclid=jobjclid LEFT OUTER JOIN
pgagent.pga_jobagent ag ON ag.jagpid=jobagentid JOIN
(SELECT DISTINCT ON (jlgjobid) jlgstatus, jlgjobid
FROM pgagent.pga_joblog
ORDER BY jlgjobid, jlgid desc) sub ON sub.jlgjobid = j.jobid
-- + restriction +
ORDER BY jobname;

Regards, Dave.
