15 ALTER TABLESPACE changes the definition of a tablespace.
16
17 You must own the tablespace to use ALTER TABLESPACE. To alter the
18 owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning
19 role. (Note that superusers have these privileges automatically.)
20
22 name
23 The name of an existing tablespace.
24
25 new_name
26 The new name of the tablespace. The new name cannot begin with pg_,
27 as such names are reserved for system tablespaces.
28
29 new_owner
30 The new owner of the tablespace.
31
32 tablespace_parameter
33 A tablespace parameter to be set or reset. Currently, the only
34 available parameters are seq_page_cost and random_page_cost.
35 Setting either value for a particular tablespace will override the
36 planner's usual estimate of the cost of reading pages from tables
37 in that tablespace, as established by the configuration parameters
38 of the same name (see seq_page_cost, random_page_cost). This may be
39 useful if one tablespace is located on a disk which is faster or
40 slower than the remainder of the I/O subsystem.
41
43 Rename tablespace index_space to fast_raid:
44
45 ALTER TABLESPACE index_space RENAME TO fast_raid;
46
47 Change the owner of tablespace index_space:
48
49 ALTER TABLESPACE index_space OWNER TO mary;
50
52 There is no ALTER TABLESPACE statement in the SQL standard.
