6 ALTER_SUBSCRIPTION - change the definition of a subscription

9 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name CONNECTION 'conninfo'
10 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name SET PUBLICATION publication_name [, ...] [ WITH ( set_publication_option [= value] [, ... ] ) ]
11 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name REFRESH PUBLICATION [ WITH ( refresh_option [= value] [, ... ] ) ]
12 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name ENABLE
13 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name DISABLE
14 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name SET ( subscription_parameter [= value] [, ... ] )
15 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name OWNER TO { new_owner | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER }
16 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION name RENAME TO new_name
17
19 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION can change most of the subscription properties that
20 can be specified in CREATE SUBSCRIPTION (CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)).
21
22 You must own the subscription to use ALTER SUBSCRIPTION. To alter the
23 owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning
24 role. The new owner has to be a superuser. (Currently, all subscription
25 owners must be superusers, so the owner checks will be bypassed in
26 practice. But this might change in the future.)
27
29 name
30 The name of a subscription whose properties are to be altered.
31
32 CONNECTION 'conninfo'
33 This clause alters the connection property originally set by CREATE
34 SUBSCRIPTION (CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)). See there for more
35 information.
36
37 SET PUBLICATION publication_name
38 Changes list of subscribed publications. See CREATE SUBSCRIPTION
39 (CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)) for more information. By default this
40 command will also act like REFRESH PUBLICATION.
41
42 set_publication_option specifies additional options for this
43 operation. The supported options are:
44
45 refresh (boolean)
46 When false, the command will not try to refresh table
47 information. REFRESH PUBLICATION should then be executed
48 separately. The default is true.
49
50 Additionally, refresh options as described under REFRESH
51 PUBLICATION may be specified.
52
53 REFRESH PUBLICATION
54 Fetch missing table information from publisher. This will start
55 replication of tables that were added to the subscribed-to
56 publications since the last invocation of REFRESH PUBLICATION or
57 since CREATE SUBSCRIPTION.
58
59 refresh_option specifies additional options for the refresh
60 operation. The supported options are:
61
62 copy_data (boolean)
63 Specifies whether the existing data in the publications that
64 are being subscribed to should be copied once the replication
65 starts. The default is true. (Previously subscribed tables are
66 not copied.)
67
68
69 ENABLE
70 Enables the previously disabled subscription, starting the logical
71 replication worker at the end of transaction.
72
73 DISABLE
74 Disables the running subscription, stopping the logical replication
75 worker at the end of transaction.
76
77 SET ( subscription_parameter [= value] [, ... ] )
78 This clause alters parameters originally set by CREATE SUBSCRIPTION
79 (CREATE_SUBSCRIPTION(7)). See there for more information. The
80 allowed options are slot_name and synchronous_commit
81
82 new_owner
83 The user name of the new owner of the subscription.
84
85 new_name
86 The new name for the subscription.
87
89 Change the publication subscribed by a subscription to insert_only:
90
91 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION mysub SET PUBLICATION insert_only;
92
93 Disable (stop) the subscription:
94
95 ALTER SUBSCRIPTION mysub DISABLE;
96
