Before running a running a function, i would check only 1 instance is
running.  If alreaady a function is running, the existing function should
exist with the msg that already a function with same is running.

If somebody has already used such a faeture, can u please share or
Can you tell me the table and column from which I could this info.

Thanks,

Hi

you can use a advisory locks for singleton implementation

Advisory locks might work for you:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/explicit-locking.html
(at the bottom of the page)

google will find other's talking about it:  "postgres advisory lock"
