connname
Name of the connection to use; omit this parameter to use the unnamed connection.

fail_on_error
If true (the default when omitted) then an error thrown on the
remote side of the connection causes an error to also be thrown
locally. If false, the remote error is locally reported as a NOTICE,
and the function's return value is set to ERROR

dblink_close
will issue the matching COMMIT
.
