Description
DROP SERVER removes an existing foreign server descriptor. The user running this command must be the owner of the server.
Parameters
- IF EXISTS
- Do not throw an error if the server does not exist. Greenplum Database issues a notice in this case.
- servername
- The name of an existing server.
- CASCADE
- Automatically drop objects that depend on the server (such as user mappings).
- RESTRICT
- Refuse to drop the server if any object depends on it. This is the default.
