Changes the definition of a protocol.
ALTER PROTOCOL <name> RENAME TO <newname>
ALTER PROTOCOL <name> OWNER TO <newowner>
ALTER PROTOCOL
changes the definition of a protocol. Only the protocol name or owner can be altered.
You must own the protocol to use ALTER PROTOCOL
. To alter the owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning role, and that role must have CREATE
privilege on schema of the conversion.
These restrictions are in place to ensure that altering the owner only makes changes that could by made by dropping and recreating the protocol. Note that a superuser can alter ownership of any protocol.
To rename the conversion GPDBauth
to GPDB_authentication
:
ALTER PROTOCOL GPDBauth RENAME TO GPDB_authentication;
To change the owner of the conversion GPDB_authentication
to joe
:
ALTER PROTOCOL GPDB_authentication OWNER TO joe;
There is no ALTER PROTOCOL
statement in the SQL standard.
