-      This function returns the foreign server names of all the open

-      if the foreign server connection is used in the current local
-      transaction but its foreign server or user mapping is changed or
-      dropped (Note that server name of an invalid connection will be
-      <literal>NULL</literal> if the server is dropped),
-      and then such invalid connection will be closed at
-      the end of that transaction. <literal>true</literal> is returned
-      otherwise. If there are no open connections, no record is returned.
