Master parameter settings in the master postgresql.conf
file are the system-wide default. To set a master parameter:
Edit the $MASTER_DATA_DIRECTORY/postgresql.conf
file.
Find the parameter to set, uncomment it (remove the preceding #
character), and type the desired value.
Save and close the file.
For session parameters that do not require a server restart, upload the postgresql.conf
changes as follows:
$ gpstop -u
For parameter changes that require a server restart, restart Greenplum Database as follows:
$ gpstop -r
For details about the server configuration parameters, see the Greenplum Database Reference Guide.
