# system.replication_queue {#system_tables-replication_queue}

Contains information about tasks from replication queues stored in ZooKeeper for tables in the `ReplicatedMergeTree` family.

Columns:

-   `database` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Name of the database.

-   `table` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Name of the table.

-   `replica_name` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Replica name in ZooKeeper. Different replicas of the same table have different names.

-   `position` ([UInt32](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — Position of the task in the queue.

-   `node_name` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Node name in ZooKeeper.

-   `type` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Type of the task in the queue: `GET_PARTS`, `MERGE_PARTS`, `DETACH_PARTS`, `DROP_PARTS`, or `MUTATE_PARTS`.

-   `create_time` ([Datetime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — Date and time when the task was submitted for execution.

-   `required_quorum` ([UInt32](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The number of replicas waiting for the task to complete with confirmation of completion. This column is only relevant for the `GET_PARTS` task.

-   `source_replica` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Name of the source replica.

-   `new_part_name` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Name of the new part.

-   `parts_to_merge` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md) ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md))) — Names of parts to merge or update.

-   `is_detach` ([UInt8](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The flag indicates whether the `DETACH_PARTS` task is in the queue.

-   `is_currently_executing` ([UInt8](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The flag indicates whether a specific task is being performed right now.

-   `num_tries` ([UInt32](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The number of failed attempts to complete the task.

-   `last_exception` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Text message about the last error that occurred (if any).

-   `last_attempt_time` ([Datetime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — Date and time when the task was last attempted.

-   `num_postponed` ([UInt32](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — The number of postponed tasks.

-   `postpone_reason` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — The reason why the task was postponed.

-   `last_postpone_time` ([Datetime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — Date and time when the task was last postponed.

-   `merge_type` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Type of the current merge. Empty if it's a mutation.
