6 ALTER_COLLATION - change the definition of a collation

9 ALTER COLLATION name RENAME TO new_name
10 ALTER COLLATION name OWNER TO new_owner
11 ALTER COLLATION name SET SCHEMA new_schema
12
14 ALTER COLLATION changes the definition of a collation.
15
16 You must own the collation to use ALTER COLLATION. To alter the owner,
17 you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning role,
18 and that role must have CREATE privilege on the collation's schema.
19 (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything
20 you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the collation. However, a
21 superuser can alter ownership of any collation anyway.)
