NAME

6       RESET - restore the value of a run-time parameter to the default value
7

SYNOPSIS

9       RESET configuration_parameter
10       RESET ALL
11

DESCRIPTION

13       RESET restores run-time parameters to their default values.  RESET is
14       an alternative spelling for
15
16           SET configuration_parameter TO DEFAULT
17
18       Refer to SET(7) for details.
19
20       The default value is defined as the value that the parameter would have
21       had, if no SET had ever been issued for it in the current session. The
22       actual source of this value might be a compiled-in default, the
23       configuration file, command-line options, or per-database or per-user
24       default settings. This is subtly different from defining it as “the
25       value that the parameter had at session start”, because if the value
26       came from the configuration file, it will be reset to whatever is
27       specified by the configuration file now. See Chapter 19 for details.
28
29       The transactional behavior of RESET is the same as SET: its effects
30       will be undone by transaction rollback.
31
