ALTER STATISTICS(7)               PostgreSQL 12.3 Documentation               ALTER STATISTICS(7)



NAME
       ALTER_STATISTICS - change the definition of an extended statistics object

SYNOPSIS
       ALTER STATISTICS name OWNER TO { new_owner | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER }
       ALTER STATISTICS name RENAME TO new_name
       ALTER STATISTICS name SET SCHEMA new_schema

DESCRIPTION
       ALTER STATISTICS changes the parameters of an existing extended statistics object. Any
       parameters not specifically set in the ALTER STATISTICS command retain their prior
       settings.

       You must own the statistics object to use ALTER STATISTICS. To change a statistics
       object's schema, you must also have CREATE privilege on the new schema. 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 the statistics object's schema. (These restrictions enforce
       that altering the owner doesn't do anything you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the
       statistics object. However, a superuser can alter ownership of any statistics object
       anyway.)

PARAMETERS
       name
           The name (optionally schema-qualified) of the statistics object to be altered.

       new_owner
           The user name of the new owner of the statistics object.

       new_name
           The new name for the statistics object.

       new_schema
           The new schema for the statistics object.

COMPATIBILITY
       There is no ALTER STATISTICS command in the SQL standard.
