  <title>Description</title>

  <para>
   <command>ALTER DATABASE</command> changes the attributes
   of a database.
  </para>

  <para>
   The first form changes certain per-database settings.  (See below for
   details.)  Only the database owner or a superuser can change these settings.
  </para>

  <para>
   The second form changes the name of the database.  Only the database
   owner or a superuser can rename a database; non-superuser owners must
   also have the
   <literal>CREATEDB</literal> privilege.  The current database cannot
   be renamed.  (Connect to a different database if you need to do
   that.)
  </para>

  <para>
   The third form changes the owner of the database.
   To alter the owner, you must be able to <literal>SET ROLE</literal> to the
   new owning role, and you must have the
   <literal>CREATEDB</literal> privilege.
   (Note that superusers have all these privileges automatically.)
  </para>

  <para>
   The fourth form changes the default tablespace of the database.
   Only the database owner or a superuser can do this; you must also have
   create privilege for the new tablespace.
   This command physically moves any tables or indexes in the database's old
   default tablespace to the new tablespace.  The new default tablespace
   must be empty for this database, and no one can be connected to
   the database.  Tables and indexes in non-default tablespaces are
   unaffected.  The method used to copy files to the new tablespace
   is affected by the <xref linkend="guc-file-copy-method"/> setting.
  </para>

  <para>
   The remaining forms change the session default for a run-time
   configuration variable for a <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>
   database. Whenever a new session is subsequently started in that
   database, the specified value becomes the session default value.
   The database-specific default overrides whatever setting is present
   in <filename>postgresql.conf</filename> or has been received from the
   <command>postgres</command> command line.  Only the database
   owner or a superuser can change the session defaults for a
   database.  Certain variables cannot be set this way, or can only be
   set by a superuser.
  </para>

     <varlistentry>
       <term><replaceable class="parameter">istemplate</replaceable></term>
       <listitem>
        <para>
         If true, then this database can be cloned by any user with <literal>CREATEDB</literal>
         privileges; if false, then only superusers or the owner of the
         database can clone it.
        </para>
       </listitem>
      </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><replaceable>new_name</replaceable></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      The new name of the database.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><replaceable class="parameter">new_owner</replaceable></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      The new owner of the database.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><replaceable class="parameter">new_tablespace</replaceable></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      The new default tablespace of the database.
     </para>

     <para>
      This form of the command cannot be executed inside a transaction block.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>REFRESH COLLATION VERSION</literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      Update the database collation version.  See <xref
      linkend="sql-altercollation-notes"/> for background.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

     <varlistentry>
      <term><replaceable>configuration_parameter</replaceable></term>
      <term><replaceable>value</replaceable></term>
      <listitem>
       <para>
        Set this database's session default for the specified configuration
        parameter to the given value.  If
        <replaceable>value</replaceable> is <literal>DEFAULT</literal>
        or, equivalently, <literal>RESET</literal> is used, the
        database-specific setting is removed, so the system-wide default
        setting will be inherited in new sessions.  Use <literal>RESET
        ALL</literal> to clear all database-specific settings.
        <literal>SET FROM CURRENT</literal> saves the session's current value of
        the parameter as the database-specific value.
       </para>

       <para>
        See <xref linkend="sql-set"/> and <xref linkend="runtime-config"/>
        for more information about allowed parameter names
        and values.

  </variablelist>

  <title>Notes</title>

  <para>
   It is also possible to tie a session default to a specific role
   rather than to a database; see
   <xref linkend="sql-alterrole"/>.
   Role-specific settings override database-specific
   ones if there is a conflict.
  </para>
 </refsect1>

 <refsect1>
  <title>Examples</title>

  <para>
   To disable index scans by default in the database
   <literal>test</literal>:

<programlisting>
ALTER DATABASE test SET enable_indexscan TO off;
</programlisting></para>
