  <title>Description</title>

  <para>
   <command>ALTER FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER</command> changes the
   definition of a foreign-data wrapper.  The first form of the
   command changes the support functions or the generic options of the
   foreign-data wrapper (at least one clause is required).  The second
   form changes the owner of the foreign-data wrapper.
  </para>

  <para>
   Only superusers can alter foreign-data wrappers.  Additionally,
   only superusers can own foreign-data wrappers.
  </para>

  <title>Parameters</title>

  <variablelist>
   <varlistentry>
    <term><replaceable class="parameter">name</replaceable></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      The name of an existing foreign-data wrapper.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>HANDLER <replaceable class="parameter">handler_function</replaceable></literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      Specifies a new handler function for the foreign-data wrapper.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>NO HANDLER</literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      This is used to specify that the foreign-data wrapper should no
      longer have a handler function.
     </para>
     <para>
      Note that foreign tables that use a foreign-data wrapper with no
      handler cannot be accessed.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>VALIDATOR <replaceable class="parameter">validator_function</replaceable></literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      Specifies a new validator function for the foreign-data wrapper.
     </para>

     <para>
      Note that it is possible that pre-existing options of the foreign-data
      wrapper, or of dependent servers, user mappings, or foreign tables, are
      invalid according to the new validator.  <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> does
      not check for this.  It is up to the user to make sure that these
      options are correct before using the modified foreign-data wrapper.
      However, any options specified in this <command>ALTER FOREIGN DATA
      WRAPPER</command> command will be checked using the new validator.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>NO VALIDATOR</literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      This is used to specify that the foreign-data wrapper should no
      longer have a validator function.
     </para>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>CONNECTION <replaceable class="parameter">connection_function</replaceable></literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      Specifies a new connection function for the foreign-data wrapper.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>NO CONNECTION</literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      This is used to specify that the foreign-data wrapper should no
      longer have a connection function.

   <varlistentry>
    <term><literal>OPTIONS ( [ ADD | SET | DROP ] <replaceable class="parameter">option</replaceable> ['<replaceable class="parameter">value</replaceable>'] [, ... ] )</literal></term>
    <listitem>
     <para>
      Change options for the foreign-data
      wrapper.  <literal>ADD</literal>, <literal>SET</literal>, and <literal>DROP</literal>
      specify the action to be performed.  <literal>ADD</literal> is assumed
      if no operation is explicitly specified.  Option names must be
      unique; names and values are also validated using the foreign
      data wrapper's validator function, if any.
     </para>
    </listitem>
   </varlistentry>

   <varlistentry>
    <term><replaceable class="parameter">new_owner</replaceable></term>
    <listitem>
