<SystemTableCloud/>

Contains information about stack traces for fatal errors. The table does not exist in the database by default, it is created only when fatal errors occur.

Columns:

- `hostname` ([LowCardinality(String)](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Hostname of the server executing the query.
- `event_date` ([DateTime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — Date of the event.
- `event_time` ([DateTime](../../sql-reference/data-types/datetime.md)) — Time of the event.
- `timestamp_ns` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — Timestamp of the event with nanoseconds.
- `signal` ([Int32](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — Signal number.
- `thread_id` ([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — Thread ID.
- `query_id` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — Query ID.
- `trace` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md)([UInt64](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md))) — Stack trace at the moment of crash. Each element is a virtual memory address inside ClickHouse server process.
- `trace_full` ([Array](../../sql-reference/data-types/array.md)([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md))) — Stack trace at the moment of crash. Each element contains a called method inside ClickHouse server process.
- `version` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — ClickHouse server version.
- `revision` ([UInt32](../../sql-reference/data-types/int-uint.md)) — ClickHouse server revision.
- `build_id` ([String](../../sql-reference/data-types/string.md)) — BuildID that is generated by compiler.
