PolarDB:ALTER SUBSCRIPTION

Description

ALTER SUBSCRIPTION can change most of the subscription properties that can be specified in CREATE SUBSCRIPTION.

You must own the subscription to use ALTER SUBSCRIPTION. To alter the owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning role. The new owner has to be a superuser. (Currently, all subscription owners must be superusers, so the owner checks will be bypassed in practice. But this might change in the future.)

Parameters

name: The name of a subscription whose properties are to be altered.

CONNECTION ' conninfo ': This clause alters the connection property originally set by CREATE SUBSCRIPTION. See there for more information.

SET PUBLICATION publication_name: Changes the list of subscribed publications. See CREATE SUBSCRIPTION for more information. By default, this command will also act like REFRESH PUBLICATION.

publication_option specifies additional options for this operation. The supported options are:

refresh (boolean): When false, the command will not try to refresh table information.REFRESH PUBLICATION should then be executed separately. The default is true.

Additionally, the options described under REFRESH PUBLICATION may be specified, to control the implicit refresh operation.

REFRESH PUBLICATION: Fetch missing table information from publisher. This will start replication of tables that were added to the subscribed-to publications since the last invocation of REFRESH PUBLICATION or since CREATE SUBSCRIPTION.

refresh_option specifies additional options for the refresh operation. The supported options are:

copy_data (boolean): Specifies whether the existing data in the publications that are being subscribed to should be copied once the replication starts. The default is true. (Previously subscribed tables are not copied.)

ENABLE: Enables the previously disabled subscription, starting the logical replication worker at the end of transaction.

DISABLE: Disables the running subscription, stopping the logical replication worker at the end of transaction.

SET ( subscription_parameter [= value ] [, ... ] ): This clause alters parameters originally set by CREATE SUBSCRIPTION. See there for more information. The parameters that can be altered are slot_name, and synchronous_commit.

new_owner: The user name of the new owner of the subscription.

new_name: The new name for the subscription.

Examples

Change the publication subscribed by a subscription toinsert_only:

ALTER SUBSCRIPTION mysub SET PUBLICATION insert_only;

Disable (stop) the subscription:

ALTER SUBSCRIPTION mysub DISABLE;
