This function can be used as an alternative to the USE NODE clause of query where a query client cannot support that clause.

The node context will remain in force for subsequent queries until the context is changed.

Parameters:

node$	Mandatory	Text	The name of the node

Examples:

SELECT open_query('mynode'); -- sets 'mynode' as the node context for queries.
