Summary

Running REINDEX with "Concurrently" enabled from the Maintenance dialog generated invalid SQL:

REINDEX (VERBOSE, CONCURRENTLY) TABLE public."Command";
-- ERROR: syntax error at or near "CONCURRENTLY"

CONCURRENTLY was being appended to the parenthesised option list alongside VERBOSE/TABLESPACE/etc., but it isn't a parenthesizable REINDEX option. Per the PostgreSQL grammar it must appear standalone, between the target type keyword (TABLE/INDEX/SCHEMA/DATABASE) and the target name:

REINDEX (VERBOSE) TABLE CONCURRENTLY public."Command";

Fixes #10251.

Test plan

  • Updated the three existing unit tests that had been asserting the invalid SQL to expect the corrected syntax
  • python regression/runtests.py --pkg tools.maintenance passes (69/69) against a live PostgreSQL 18 server

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Corrected generated SQL for concurrent reindexing so CONCURRENTLY appears in the proper position for databases, schemas, tables, and indexes.
    • Added coverage for concurrent schema reindexing, including its PostgreSQL 12 version requirement.

Walkthrough

The maintenance SQL template now places CONCURRENTLY after applicable REINDEX target keywords instead of inside the parenthesized options. Unit tests update expected SQL and add coverage for concurrent schema reindexing with PostgreSQL 12 version gating.

The template emits CONCURRENTLY after the applicable target keyword. Tests verify the updated SQL for database, table, and index targets, and add schema coverage with PostgreSQL 12 version gating.

Explanation

The template fixes CONCURRENTLY placement for INDEX, DATABASE, SCHEMA, and TABLE targets. The SYSTEM branch still emits REINDEX SYSTEM ... without CONCURRENTLY when data.reindex_concurrently is enabled. Issue #10251 requires the corrected standalone keyword for REINDEX targets, including SYSTEM. The updated tests cover database, schema, table, and index cases, but no SYSTEM case.

Rebased this branch onto current upstream/master to pick up the CI Yarn-setup fix and other master-side fixes the branch had drifted behind, which is why every check was failing. Also dropped an unrelated commit (bd252cae, the Helm existingSecret fix from #10313) that had ended up riding along on this branch. The diff now contains only this PR's two commits: the CONCURRENTLY placement fix and its added test coverage. Targeted test (test_maintenance_create_job_unit_test) still passes after the rebase.

…rg#10251)

CONCURRENTLY was being appended to the parenthesised option list
alongside VERBOSE etc., which PostgreSQL rejects. It's not a
parenthesizable option: it belongs standalone, between the object
type keyword and the object name.
Add a regression case for reindex_concurrently=True combined with a
schema target, asserting REINDEX (VERBOSE) SCHEMA CONCURRENTLY
my_schema;. The command.sql template already places CONCURRENTLY
correctly for this case; only test coverage was missing.
