# SHOW PARTITIONS

Shows partitions and relevant information about them.

## Syntax

```sql
SHOW PARTITIONS [EXTENDED] [ON <database_name>];
```

## Remarks

* Shows partition information for the current database, or for the database in the optional ON clause.
* This command must be run on the master aggregator or a child aggregator node (see [Node Requirements for SingleStore Commands](https://docs.singlestore.com/db/v9.1/reference/sql-reference/cluster-management-commands.md)).
* The `SHOW PARTITIONS` command includes a `Locked` column that indicates whether a partition is locked. Any query that accesses a locked partition will wait until the partition is unlocked before proceeding.
* The `EXTENDED` option will display additional partition information including replication status, last command run, last error, and last message.

## Example

```sql
SHOW PARTITIONS ON memsql_demo;
