ALTER SCHEMA changes the definition of a schema.
You must own the schema to use ALTER SCHEMA.
To rename a schema you must also have the
CREATE privilege for the database.
To alter the owner, you must be able to SET ROLE to the
new owning role, and that role must have the
CREATE privilege for the database.
(Note that superusers have all these privileges automatically.)
The SECURITY OFFICER clause sets the security
officer of the schema, while the RESET SECURITY OFFICER
clause resets the security officer. When you set the security officer,
the schema becomes the vault
schema.
nameThe name of an existing schema.
new_name
The new name of the schema. The new name cannot
begin with pg_, as such names
are reserved for system schemas.
new_ownerThe new owner of the schema.
new_security_officerThe new security officer of the schema.
There is no ALTER SCHEMA statement in the SQL
standard.
