+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+clusterdb
+is a utility for reclustering tables in a
+PostgreSQL
+database\&. It finds tables that have previously been clustered, and clusters them again on the same index that was last used\&. Tables that have never been clustered are not affected\&.
+.PP
+clusterdb
+is a wrapper around the SQL command
+\fBCLUSTER\fR(7)\&. There is no effective difference between clustering databases via this utility and via other methods for accessing the server\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+clusterdb
+accepts the following command\-line arguments:

+Specifies the name of the database to be clustered, when
+\fB\-a\fR/\fB\-\-all\fR
+is not used\&. If this is not specified, the database name is read from the environment variable
+\fBPGDATABASE\fR\&. If that is not set, the user name specified for the connection is used\&. The

+.PP
+\fBecpg\fR

+.PP
+\fBecpg\fR
+will convert each input file given on the command line to the corresponding C output file\&. If an input file name does not have any extension,

+\fBecpg\fR

+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+When compiling the preprocessed C code files, the compiler needs to be able to find the

+include directory\&. Therefore, you might have to use the
+\fB\-I\fR
+option when invoking the compiler (e\&.g\&.,
+\-I/usr/local/pgsql/include)\&.
+.PP
+Programs using C code with embedded SQL have to be linked against the
+libecpg

+\-L/usr/local/pgsql/lib \-lecpg\&.
+.PP
+The value of either of these directories that is appropriate for the installation can be found out using

+database cluster\&. A database cluster is a collection of databases that are managed by a single server instance\&.
+.PP
+Creating a database cluster consists of creating the directories in which the database data will live, generating the shared catalog tables (tables that belong to the whole cluster rather than to any particular database), and creating the
+template1
+and
+postgres
+databases\&. When you later create a new database, everything in the
+template1
+database is copied\&. (Therefore, anything installed in
+template1
+is automatically copied into each database created later\&.) The
+postgres
+database is a default database meant for use by users, utilities and third party applications\&.
+.PP
+Although
+\fBinitdb\fR
+will attempt to create the specified data directory, it might not have permission if the parent directory of the desired data directory is root\-owned\&. To initialize in such a setup, create an empty data directory as root, then use
+\fBchown\fR
+to assign ownership of that directory to the database user account, then
+\fBsu\fR
+to become the database user to run
+\fBinitdb\fR\&.
+.PP
+\fBinitdb\fR
+must be run as the user that will own the server process, because the server needs to have access to the files and directories that
+\fBinitdb\fR
+creates\&. Since the server cannot be run as root, you must not run
+\fBinitdb\fR
+as root either\&. (It will in fact refuse to do so\&.)
+.PP
+For security reasons the new cluster created by
+\fBinitdb\fR
+will only be accessible by the cluster owner by default\&. The
+\fB\-\-allow\-group\-access\fR
+option allows any user in the same group as the cluster owner to read files in the cluster\&. This is useful for performing backups as a non\-privileged user\&.
+.PP
+\fBinitdb\fR
+initializes the database cluster\*(Aqs default locale and character set encoding\&. The character set encoding, collation order (LC_COLLATE) and character set classes (LC_CTYPE, e\&.g\&., upper, lower, digit) can be set separately for a database when it is created\&.
+\fBinitdb\fR
+determines those settings for the
+template1
+database, which will serve as the default for all other databases\&.
+.PP
+To alter the default collation order or character set classes, use the
+\fB\-\-lc\-collate\fR
+and
+\fB\-\-lc\-ctype\fR
+options\&. Collation orders other than
+C
+or
+POSIX
+also have a performance penalty\&. For these reasons it is important to choose the right locale when running
+\fBinitdb\fR\&.
+.PP
+The remaining locale categories can be changed later when the server is started\&. You can also use
+\fB\-\-locale\fR
+to set the default for all locale categories, including collation order and character set classes\&. All server locale values (lc_*) can be displayed via
+\fBSHOW ALL\fR\&. More details can be found in
+Section\ \&24.1\&.
+.PP
+To alter the default encoding, use the
+\fB\-\-encoding\fR\&. More details can be found in

+\fBpg_amcheck\fR [\fIoption\fR...] [\fIdbname\fR]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_amcheck
+supports running
+amcheck\*(Aqs corruption checking functions against one or more databases, with options to select which schemas, tables and indexes to check, which kinds of checking to perform, and whether to perform the checks in parallel, and if so, the number of parallel connections to establish and use\&.
+.PP
+Only table relations and btree indexes are currently supported\&. Other relation types are silently skipped\&.
+.PP
+If
+dbname
+is specified, it should be the name of a single database to check, and no other database selection options should be present\&. Otherwise, if any database selection options are present, all matching databases will be checked\&. If no such options are present, the default database will be checked\&. Database selection options include
+\fB\-\-all\fR,
+\fB\-\-database\fR
+and
+\fB\-\-exclude\-database\fR\&. They also include
+\fB\-\-relation\fR,
+\fB\-\-exclude\-relation\fR,
+\fB\-\-table\fR,
+\fB\-\-exclude\-table\fR,
+\fB\-\-index\fR, and
+\fB\-\-exclude\-index\fR, but only when such options are used with a three\-part pattern (e\&.g\&.
+\fBmydb*\&.myschema*\&.myrel*\fR)\&. Finally, they include
+\fB\-\-schema\fR
+and
+\fB\-\-exclude\-schema\fR
+when such options are used with a two\-part pattern (e\&.g\&.
+\fBmydb*\&.myschema*\fR)\&.
+.PP
+\fIdbname\fR
+can also be a
+connection string\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control what is checked:
+.PP

+\fB\-\-relation=\fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Check relations matching the specified

+myschema*\&.myrel*
+or database\-qualified and schema\-qualified, e\&.g\&.
+mydb*\&.myscheam*\&.myrel*\&. A database\-qualified pattern will add matching databases to the list of databases to be checked\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-R \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR

+\fB\-\-exclude\-relation=\fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR

+\fB\-\-relation\fR, the
+\fIpattern\fR
+may be unqualified, schema\-qualified, or database\- and schema\-qualified\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-s \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-schema=\fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Check tables and indexes in schemas matching the specified
+\fIpattern\fR, unless they are otherwise excluded\&. This option can be specified more than once\&.
+.sp
+To select only tables in schemas matching a particular pattern, consider using something like
+\-\-table=SCHEMAPAT\&.* \-\-no\-dependent\-indexes\&. To select only indexes, consider using something like
+\-\-index=SCHEMAPAT\&.*\&.
+.sp
+A schema pattern may be database\-qualified\&. For example, you may write
+\-\-schema=mydb*\&.myschema*

+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-S \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR

+\fB\-\-exclude\-relation\fR
+option, except that it applies only to tables, not indexes\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-dependent\-indexes\fR
+.RS 4
+By default, if a table is checked, any btree indexes of that table will also be checked, even if they are not explicitly selected by an option such as
+\-\-index
+or
+\-\-relation\&. This option suppresses that behavior\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-dependent\-toast\fR
+.RS 4
+By default, if a table is checked, its toast table, if any, will also be checked, even if it is not explicitly selected by an option such as
+\-\-table
+or
+\-\-relation\&. This option suppresses that behavior\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-strict\-names\fR
+.RS 4
+By default, if an argument to
+\-\-database,
+\-\-table,
+\-\-index, or
+\-\-relation
+matches no objects, it is a fatal error\&. This option downgrades that error to a warning\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control checking of tables:
+.PP
+\fB\-\-exclude\-toast\-pointers\fR
+.RS 4
+By default, whenever a toast pointer is encountered in a table, a lookup is performed to ensure that it references apparently\-valid entries in the toast table\&. These checks can be quite slow, and this option can be used to skip them\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-on\-error\-stop\fR
+.RS 4
+After reporting all corruptions on the first page of a table where corruption is found, stop processing that table relation and move on to the next table or index\&.
+.sp
+Note that index checking always stops after the first corrupt page\&. This option only has meaning relative to table relations\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-skip=\fR\fB\fIoption\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+If
+all\-frozen
+is given, table corruption checks will skip over pages in all tables that are marked as all frozen\&.
+.sp
+If
+all\-visible
+is given, table corruption checks will skip over pages in all tables that are marked as all visible\&.
+.sp
+By default, no pages are skipped\&. This can be specified as
+none, but since this is the default, it need not be mentioned\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-startblock=\fR\fB\fIblock\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Start checking at the specified block number\&. An error will occur if the table relation being checked has fewer than this number of blocks\&. This option does not apply to indexes, and is probably only useful when checking a single table relation\&. See
+\-\-endblock
+for further caveats\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-endblock=\fR\fB\fIblock\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+End checking at the specified block number\&. An error will occur if the table relation being checked has fewer than this number of blocks\&. This option does not apply to indexes, and is probably only useful when checking a single table relation\&. If both a regular table and a toast table are checked, this option will apply to both, but higher\-numbered toast blocks may still be accessed while validating toast pointers, unless that is suppressed using
+\fB\-\-exclude\-toast\-pointers\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control checking of B\-tree indexes:
+.PP
+\fB\-\-heapallindexed\fR
+.RS 4
+For each index checked, verify the presence of all heap tuples as index tuples in the index using
+amcheck\*(Aqs
+\fBheapallindexed\fR
+option\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-parent\-check\fR
+.RS 4
+For each btree index checked, use
+amcheck\*(Aqs
+\fBbt_index_parent_check\fR
+function, which performs additional checks of parent/child relationships during index checking\&.
+.sp
+The default is to use
+amcheck\*(Aqs
+\fBbt_index_check\fR
+function, but note that use of the
+\fB\-\-rootdescend\fR
+option implicitly selects
+\fBbt_index_parent_check\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-rootdescend\fR
+.RS 4
+For each index checked, re\-find tuples on the leaf level by performing a new search from the root page for each tuple using
+amcheck\*(Aqs
+\fBrootdescend\fR
+option\&.
+.sp
+Use of this option implicitly also selects the
+\fB\-\-parent\-check\fR
+option\&.
+.sp
+This form of verification was originally written to help in the development of btree index features\&. It may be of limited use or even of no use in helping detect the kinds of corruption that occur in practice\&. It may also cause corruption checking to take considerably longer and consume considerably more resources on the server\&.

+.PP
+The extra checks performed against B\-tree indexes when the
+\fB\-\-parent\-check\fR
+option or the
+\fB\-\-rootdescend\fR

+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-W\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-password\fR
+.RS 4
+Force
+pg_amcheck

+.sp
+This option is never essential, since
+pg_amcheck
+will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password authentication\&. However,
+pg_amcheck
+will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password\&. In some cases it is worth typing
+\fB\-W\fR
+to avoid the extra connection attempt\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-maintenance\-db=\fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies a database or

Otherwise, any connection string parameters other than the database name which are included in the value for this option will also be used when connecting to the databases being checked\&. If this option is omitted, the default is
+postgres
+or, if that fails,
+template1\&.

+.PP
+pg_archivecleanup

+to clean up WAL file archives when running as a standby server (see
+Section\ \&27.2)\&.
+pg_archivecleanup
+can also be used as a standalone program to clean WAL file archives\&.

+.PP
+When used within

+argument will be removed from
+\fIarchivelocation\fR\&. This minimizes the number of files that need to be retained, while preserving crash\-restart capability\&. Use of this parameter is appropriate if the
+\fIarchivelocation\fR
+is a transient staging area for this particular standby server, but
+\fInot\fR
+when the
+\fIarchivelocation\fR
+is intended as a long\-term WAL archive area, or when multiple standby servers are recovering from the same archive location\&.

+file name, then only the file prefix will be used as the

+\&.backup
+file name allows you to remove all WAL files archived prior to a specific base backup without error\&. For example, the following example will remove all files older than WAL file name

+.SH "SYNOPSIS"

+\fBpg_basebackup\fR [\fIoption\fR...]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_basebackup
+is used to take a base backup of a running
+PostgreSQL
+database cluster\&. The backup is taken without affecting other clients of the database, and can be used both for point\-in\-time recovery (see
+Section\ \&26.3) and as the starting point for a log\-shipping or streaming\-replication standby server (see
+Section\ \&27.2)\&.
+.PP
+pg_basebackup
+makes an exact copy of the database cluster\*(Aqs files, while making sure the server is put into and out of backup mode automatically\&. Backups are always taken of the entire database cluster; it is not possible to back up individual databases or database objects\&. For selective backups, another tool such as
+\fBpg_dump\fR(1)
+must be used\&.
+.PP
+The backup is made over a regular
+PostgreSQL
+connection that uses the replication protocol\&. The connection must be made with a user ID that has
+REPLICATION
+permissions (see
+Section\ \&22.2) or is a superuser, and
+pg_hba\&.conf
+must permit the replication connection\&. The server must also be configured with
+max_wal_senders
+set high enough to provide at least one walsender for the backup plus one for WAL streaming (if used)\&.
+.PP
+There can be multiple
+\fBpg_basebackup\fRs running at the same time, but it is usually better from a performance point of view to take only one backup, and copy the result\&.
+.PP
+pg_basebackup
+can make a base backup from not only a primary server but also a standby\&. To take a backup from a standby, set up the standby so that it can accept replication connections (that is, set
+\fImax_wal_senders\fR
+and
+hot_standby, and configure its
+pg_hba\&.conf
+appropriately)\&. You will also need to enable
+full_page_writes
+on the primary\&.
+.PP
+Note that there are some limitations in taking a backup from a standby:

+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3
+.\}
+pg_basebackup
+cannot force the standby to switch to a new WAL file at the end of backup\&. When you are using
+\-X none, if write activity on the primary is low,
+pg_basebackup
+may need to wait a long time for the last WAL file required for the backup to be switched and archived\&. In this case, it may be useful to run
+\fBpg_switch_wal\fR
+on the primary in order to trigger an immediate WAL file switch\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c

+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP \(bu 2.3

+All WAL records required for the backup must contain sufficient full\-page writes, which requires you to enable
+\fIfull_page_writes\fR
+on the primary and not to use a tool like
+pg_compresslog
+as
+\fIarchive_command\fR
+to remove full\-page writes from WAL files\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+Whenever
+pg_basebackup
+is taking a base backup, the server\*(Aqs
+pg_stat_progress_basebackup
+view will report the progress of the backup\&. See
+Section\ \&28.4.5
+for details\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control the location and format of the output:
+.PP
+\fB\-D \fR\fB\fIdirectory\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-pgdata=\fR\fB\fIdirectory\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the target directory to write the output to\&.
+pg_basebackup
+will create this directory (and any missing parent directories) if it does not exist\&. If it already exists, it must be empty\&.
+.sp
+When the backup is in tar format, the target directory may be specified as
+\-
+(dash), causing the tar file to be written to
+stdout\&.
+.sp
+This option is required\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-F \fR\fB\fIformat\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-format=\fR\fB\fIformat\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Selects the format for the output\&.
+\fIformat\fR
+can be one of the following:
+.PP
+p
+.br
+plain
+.RS 4
+Write the output as plain files, with the same layout as the source server\*(Aqs data directory and tablespaces\&. When the cluster has no additional tablespaces, the whole database will be placed in the target directory\&. If the cluster contains additional tablespaces, the main data directory will be placed in the target directory, but all other tablespaces will be placed in the same absolute path as they have on the source server\&. (See
+\fB\-\-tablespace\-mapping\fR
+to change that\&.)
+.sp
+This is the default format\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+t
+.br
+tar
+.RS 4
+Write the output as tar files in the target directory\&. The main data directory\*(Aqs contents will be written to a file named
+base\&.tar, and each other tablespace will be written to a separate tar file named after that tablespace\*(Aqs OID\&.
+.sp
+If the target directory is specified as
+\-
+(dash), the tar contents will be written to standard output, suitable for piping to (for example)
+gzip\&. This is only allowed if the cluster has no additional tablespaces and WAL streaming is not used\&.
+.RE
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-R\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-write\-recovery\-conf\fR
+.RS 4
+Creates a
+standby\&.signal
+
+file and appends connection settings to the
+postgresql\&.auto\&.conf
+file in the target directory (or within the base archive file when using tar format)\&. This eases setting up a standby server using the results of the backup\&.
+.sp
+The
+postgresql\&.auto\&.conf
+file will record the connection settings and, if specified, the replication slot that
+pg_basebackup
+is using, so that streaming replication will use the same settings later on\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-T \fR\fB\fIolddir\fR\fR\fB=\fR\fB\fInewdir\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-tablespace\-mapping=\fR\fB\fIolddir\fR\fR\fB=\fR\fB\fInewdir\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Relocates the tablespace in directory
+\fIolddir\fR
+to
+\fInewdir\fR
+during the backup\&. To be effective,
+\fIolddir\fR
+must exactly match the path specification of the tablespace as it is defined on the source server\&. (But it is not an error if there is no tablespace in
+\fIolddir\fR
+on the source server\&.) Meanwhile
+\fInewdir\fR
+is a directory in the receiving host\*(Aqs filesystem\&. As with the main target directory,
+\fInewdir\fR
+need not exist already, but if it does exist it must be empty\&. Both
+\fIolddir\fR
+and
+\fInewdir\fR
+must be absolute paths\&. If either path needs to contain an equal sign (=), precede that with a backslash\&. This option can be specified multiple times for multiple tablespaces\&.
+.sp
+If a tablespace is relocated in this way, the symbolic links inside the main data directory are updated to point to the new location\&. So the new data directory is ready to be used for a new server instance with all tablespaces in the updated locations\&.
+.sp
+Currently, this option only works with plain output format; it is ignored if tar format is selected\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-waldir=\fR\fB\fIwaldir\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the directory to write WAL (write\-ahead log) files to\&. By default WAL files will be placed in the
+pg_wal
+subdirectory of the target directory, but this option can be used to place them elsewhere\&.
+\fIwaldir\fR
+must be an absolute path\&. As with the main target directory,
+\fIwaldir\fR
+need not exist already, but if it does exist it must be empty\&. This option can only be specified when the backup is in plain format\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-X \fR\fB\fImethod\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-wal\-method=\fR\fB\fImethod\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Includes the required WAL (write\-ahead log) files in the backup\&. This will include all write\-ahead logs generated during the backup\&. Unless the method
+none
+is specified, it is possible to start a postmaster in the target directory without the need to consult the log archive, thus making the output a completely standalone backup\&.
+.sp
+The following
+\fImethod\fRs for collecting the write\-ahead logs are supported:
+.PP
+n
+.br
+none
+.RS 4
+Don\*(Aqt include write\-ahead logs in the backup\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+f
+.br
+fetch
+.RS 4
+The write\-ahead log files are collected at the end of the backup\&. Therefore, it is necessary for the source server\*(Aqs
+wal_keep_size
+parameter to be set high enough that the required log data is not removed before the end of the backup\&. If the required log data has been recycled before it\*(Aqs time to transfer it, the backup will fail and be unusable\&.
+.sp
+When tar format is used, the write\-ahead log files will be included in the
+base\&.tar
+file\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+s
+.br
+stream
+.RS 4
+Stream write\-ahead log data while the backup is being taken\&. This method will open a second connection to the server and start streaming the write\-ahead log in parallel while running the backup\&. Therefore, it will require two replication connections not just one\&. As long as the client can keep up with the write\-ahead log data, using this method requires no extra write\-ahead logs to be saved on the source server\&.
+.sp
+When tar format is used, the write\-ahead log files will be written to a separate file named
+pg_wal\&.tar
+(if the server is a version earlier than 10, the file will be named
+pg_xlog\&.tar)\&.
+.sp
+This value is the default\&.
+.RE
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-z\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-gzip\fR
+.RS 4
+Enables gzip compression of tar file output, with the default compression level\&. Compression is only available when using the tar format, and the suffix
+\&.gz
+will automatically be added to all tar filenames\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-Z \fR\fB\fIlevel\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-compress=\fR\fB\fIlevel\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Enables gzip compression of tar file output, and specifies the compression level (0 through 9, 0 being no compression and 9 being best compression)\&. Compression is only available when using the tar format, and the suffix
+\&.gz
+will automatically be added to all tar filenames\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control the generation of the backup and the invocation of the program:
+.PP
+\fB\-c \fR\fB\fIfast|spread\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-checkpoint=\fR\fB\fIfast|spread\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets checkpoint mode to fast (immediate) or spread (the default) (see
+Section\ \&26.3.3)\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-C\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-create\-slot\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies that the replication slot named by the
+\-\-slot
+option should be created before starting the backup\&. An error is raised if the slot already exists\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-l \fR\fB\fIlabel\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-label=\fR\fB\fIlabel\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the label for the backup\&. If none is specified, a default value of
+\(lqpg_basebackup base backup\(rq
+will be used\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-n\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-clean\fR
+.RS 4
+By default, when
+\fBpg_basebackup\fR
+aborts with an error, it removes any directories it might have created before discovering that it cannot finish the job (for example, the target directory and write\-ahead log directory)\&. This option inhibits tidying\-up and is thus useful for debugging\&.
+.sp
+Note that tablespace directories are not cleaned up either way\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-N\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-sync\fR
+.RS 4
+By default,
+\fBpg_basebackup\fR
+will wait for all files to be written safely to disk\&. This option causes
+\fBpg_basebackup\fR
+to return without waiting, which is faster, but means that a subsequent operating system crash can leave the base backup corrupt\&. Generally, this option is useful for testing but should not be used when creating a production installation\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-P\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-progress\fR
+.RS 4
+Enables progress reporting\&. Turning this on will deliver an approximate progress report during the backup\&. Since the database may change during the backup, this is only an approximation and may not end at exactly
+100%\&. In particular, when WAL log is included in the backup, the total amount of data cannot be estimated in advance, and in this case the estimated target size will increase once it passes the total estimate without WAL\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-r \fR\fB\fIrate\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-max\-rate=\fR\fB\fIrate\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the maximum transfer rate at which data is collected from the source server\&. This can be useful to limit the impact of
+pg_basebackup
+on the server\&. Values are in kilobytes per second\&. Use a suffix of
+M
+to indicate megabytes per second\&. A suffix of
+k
+is also accepted, and has no effect\&. Valid values are between 32 kilobytes per second and 1024 megabytes per second\&.
+.sp
+This option always affects transfer of the data directory\&. Transfer of WAL files is only affected if the collection method is
+fetch\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-S \fR\fB\fIslotname\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-slot=\fR\fB\fIslotname\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+This option can only be used together with
+\-X stream\&. It causes WAL streaming to use the specified replication slot\&. If the base backup is intended to be used as a streaming\-replication standby using a replication slot, the standby should then use the same replication slot name as
+primary_slot_name\&. This ensures that the primary server does not remove any necessary WAL data in the time between the end of the base backup and the start of streaming replication on the new standby\&.
+.sp
+The specified replication slot has to exist unless the option
+\fB\-C\fR
+is also used\&.
+.sp
+If this option is not specified and the server supports temporary replication slots (version 10 and later), then a temporary replication slot is automatically used for WAL streaming\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-v\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-verbose\fR
+.RS 4
+Enables verbose mode\&. Will output some extra steps during startup and shutdown, as well as show the exact file name that is currently being processed if progress reporting is also enabled\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-manifest\-checksums=\fR\fB\fIalgorithm\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the checksum algorithm that should be applied to each file included in the backup manifest\&. Currently, the available algorithms are
+NONE,
+CRC32C,
+SHA224,
+SHA256,
+SHA384, and
+SHA512\&. The default is
+CRC32C\&.
+.sp
+If
+NONE
+is selected, the backup manifest will not contain any checksums\&. Otherwise, it will contain a checksum of each file in the backup using the specified algorithm\&. In addition, the manifest will always contain a
+SHA256
+checksum of its own contents\&. The
+SHA
+algorithms are significantly more CPU\-intensive than
+CRC32C, so selecting one of them may increase the time required to complete the backup\&.
+.sp
+Using a SHA hash function provides a cryptographically secure digest of each file for users who wish to verify that the backup has not been tampered with, while the CRC32C algorithm provides a checksum that is much faster to calculate; it is good at catching errors due to accidental changes but is not resistant to malicious modifications\&. Note that, to be useful against an adversary who has access to the backup, the backup manifest would need to be stored securely elsewhere or otherwise verified not to have been modified since the backup was taken\&.
+.sp
+\fBpg_verifybackup\fR(1)
+can be used to check the integrity of a backup against the backup manifest\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-manifest\-force\-encode\fR
+.RS 4
+Forces all filenames in the backup manifest to be hex\-encoded\&. If this option is not specified, only non\-UTF8 filenames are hex\-encoded\&. This option is mostly intended to test that tools which read a backup manifest file properly handle this case\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-estimate\-size\fR
+.RS 4
+Prevents the server from estimating the total amount of backup data that will be streamed, resulting in the
+backup_total
+column in the
+pg_stat_progress_basebackup
+view always being
+NULL\&.
+.sp
+Without this option, the backup will start by enumerating the size of the entire database, and then go back and send the actual contents\&. This may make the backup take slightly longer, and in particular it will take longer before the first data is sent\&. This option is useful to avoid such estimation time if it\*(Aqs too long\&.
+.sp
+This option is not allowed when using
+\fB\-\-progress\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-manifest\fR
+.RS 4
+Disables generation of a backup manifest\&. If this option is not specified, the server will generate and send a backup manifest which can be verified using
+\fBpg_verifybackup\fR(1)\&. The manifest is a list of every file present in the backup with the exception of any WAL files that may be included\&. It also stores the size, last modification time, and an optional checksum for each file\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-slot\fR
+.RS 4
+Prevents the creation of a temporary replication slot for the backup\&.
+.sp
+By default, if log streaming is selected but no slot name is given with the
+\fB\-S\fR
+option, then a temporary replication slot is created (if supported by the source server)\&.
+.sp
+The main purpose of this option is to allow taking a base backup when the server has no free replication slots\&. Using a replication slot is almost always preferred, because it prevents needed WAL from being removed by the server during the backup\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-verify\-checksums\fR
+.RS 4
+Disables verification of checksums, if they are enabled on the server the base backup is taken from\&.
+.sp
+By default, checksums are verified and checksum failures will result in a non\-zero exit status\&. However, the base backup will not be removed in such a case, as if the
+\fB\-\-no\-clean\fR
+option had been used\&. Checksum verification failures will also be reported in the
+pg_stat_database
+view\&.

+.PP
+At the beginning of the backup, a checkpoint needs to be performed on the source server\&. This can take some time (especially if the option

+will appear to be idle\&.
+.PP
+The backup will include all files in the data directory and tablespaces, including the configuration files and any additional files placed in the directory by third parties, except certain temporary files managed by PostgreSQL\&. But only regular files and directories are copied, except that symbolic links used for tablespaces are preserved\&. Symbolic links pointing to certain directories known to PostgreSQL are copied as empty directories\&. Other symbolic links and special device files are skipped\&. See
+Section\ \&53.4
+for the precise details\&.
+.PP
+In plain format, tablespaces will be backed up to the same path they have on the source server, unless the option
+\-\-tablespace\-mapping
+is used\&. Without this option, running a plain format base backup on the same host as the server will not work if tablespaces are in use, because the backup would have to be written to the same directory locations as the original tablespaces\&.
+.PP
+When tar format is used, it is the user\*(Aqs responsibility to unpack each tar file before starting a PostgreSQL server that uses the data\&. If there are additional tablespaces, the tar files for them need to be unpacked in the correct locations\&. In this case the symbolic links for those tablespaces will be created by the server according to the contents of the
+tablespace_map
+file that is included in the
+base\&.tar
+file\&.
+.PP
+pg_basebackup
+works with servers of the same or an older major version, down to 9\&.1\&. However, WAL streaming mode (\-X stream) only works with server version 9\&.3 and later, and tar format (\-\-format=tar) only works with server version 9\&.5 and later\&.

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_checksums
+checks, enables or disables data checksums in a
+PostgreSQL
+cluster\&. The server must be shut down cleanly before running
+pg_checksums\&. When verifying checksums, the exit status is zero if there are no checksum errors, and nonzero if at least one checksum failure is detected\&. When enabling or disabling checksums, the exit status is nonzero if the operation failed\&.
+.PP
+When verifying checksums, every file in the cluster is scanned\&. When enabling checksums, every file in the cluster is rewritten in\-place\&. Disabling checksums only updates the file
+pg_control\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"

+The following command\-line options are available:
+.PP
+\fB\-D \fR\fB\fIdirectory\fR\fR

+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-N\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-sync\fR
+.RS 4
+By default,
+\fBpg_checksums\fR
+will wait for all files to be written safely to disk\&. This option causes
+\fBpg_checksums\fR
+to return without waiting, which is faster, but means that a subsequent operating system crash can leave the updated data directory corrupt\&. Generally, this option is useful for testing but should not be used on a production installation\&. This option has no effect when using
+\-\-check\&.
+.RE

+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+Enabling checksums in a large cluster can potentially take a long time\&. During this operation, the cluster or other programs that write to the data directory must not be started or else data loss may occur\&.
+.PP
+When using a replication setup with tools which perform direct copies of relation file blocks (for example
+\fBpg_rewind\fR(1)), enabling or disabling checksums can lead to page corruptions in the shape of incorrect checksums if the operation is not done consistently across all nodes\&. When enabling or disabling checksums in a replication setup, it is thus recommended to stop all the clusters before switching them all consistently\&. Destroying all standbys, performing the operation on the primary and finally recreating the standbys from scratch is also safe\&.
+.PP
+If
+pg_checksums
+is aborted or killed while enabling or disabling checksums, the cluster\*(Aqs data checksum configuration remains unchanged, and
+pg_checksums
+can be re\-run to perform the same operation\&.

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_ctl
+is a utility for initializing a
+PostgreSQL
+database cluster, starting, stopping, or restarting the
+PostgreSQL
+database server (\fBpostgres\fR(1)), or displaying the status of a running server\&. Although the server can be started manually,
+pg_ctl
+encapsulates tasks such as redirecting log output and properly detaching from the terminal and process group\&. It also provides convenient options for controlled shutdown\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fBinit\fR
+or
+\fBinitdb\fR
+mode creates a new
+PostgreSQL
+database cluster, that is, a collection of databases that will be managed by a single server instance\&. This mode invokes the
+\fBinitdb\fR
+command\&. See
+\fBinitdb\fR(1)
+for details\&.
+.PP
+\fBstart\fR
+mode launches a new server\&. The server is started in the background, and its standard input is attached to
+/dev/null
+(or
+nul
+on Windows)\&. On Unix\-like systems, by default, the server\*(Aqs standard output and standard error are sent to
+pg_ctl\*(Aqs standard output (not standard error)\&. The standard output of
+pg_ctl
+should then be redirected to a file or piped to another process such as a log rotating program like
+rotatelogs; otherwise
+\fBpostgres\fR
+will write its output to the controlling terminal (from the background) and will not leave the shell\*(Aqs process group\&. On Windows, by default the server\*(Aqs standard output and standard error are sent to the terminal\&. These default behaviors can be changed by using
+\fB\-l\fR
+to append the server\*(Aqs output to a log file\&. Use of either
+\fB\-l\fR
+or output redirection is recommended\&.
+.PP
+\fBstop\fR
+mode shuts down the server that is running in the specified data directory\&. Three different shutdown methods can be selected with the
+\fB\-m\fR
+option\&.
+\(lqSmart\(rq
+mode disallows new connections, then waits for all existing clients to disconnect and any online backup to finish\&. If the server is in hot standby, recovery and streaming replication will be terminated once all clients have disconnected\&.
+\(lqFast\(rq
+mode (the default) does not wait for clients to disconnect and will terminate an online backup in progress\&. All active transactions are rolled back and clients are forcibly disconnected, then the server is shut down\&.
+\(lqImmediate\(rq
+mode will abort all server processes immediately, without a clean shutdown\&. This choice will lead to a crash\-recovery cycle during the next server start\&.
+.PP
+\fBrestart\fR
+mode effectively executes a stop followed by a start\&. This allows changing the
+\fBpostgres\fR
+command\-line options, or changing configuration\-file options that cannot be changed without restarting the server\&. If relative paths were used on the command line during server start,
+\fBrestart\fR
+might fail unless
+pg_ctl
+is executed in the same current directory as it was during server start\&.
+.PP
+\fBreload\fR
+mode simply sends the
+\fBpostgres\fR
+server process a
+SIGHUP
+signal, causing it to reread its configuration files (postgresql\&.conf,
+pg_hba\&.conf, etc\&.)\&. This allows changing configuration\-file options that do not require a full server restart to take effect\&.
+.PP
+\fBstatus\fR
+mode checks whether a server is running in the specified data directory\&. If it is, the server\*(Aqs
+PID
+and the command line options that were used to invoke it are displayed\&. If the server is not running,
+pg_ctl
+returns an exit status of 3\&. If an accessible data directory is not specified,
+pg_ctl
+returns an exit status of 4\&.
+.PP
+\fBpromote\fR
+mode commands the standby server that is running in the specified data directory to end standby mode and begin read\-write operations\&.
+.PP
+\fBlogrotate\fR
+mode rotates the server log file\&. For details on how to use this mode with external log rotation tools, see
+Section\ \&25.3\&.
+.PP
+\fBkill\fR
+mode sends a signal to a specified process\&. This is primarily valuable on
+Microsoft Windows
+which does not have a built\-in
+kill
+command\&. Use
+\-\-help
+to see a list of supported signal names\&.
+.PP
+\fBregister\fR
+mode registers the
+PostgreSQL
+server as a system service on
+Microsoft Windows\&. The
+\fB\-S\fR
+option allows selection of service start type, either
+\(lqauto\(rq
+(start service automatically on system startup) or
+\(lqdemand\(rq
+(start service on demand)\&.
+.PP
+\fBunregister\fR
+mode unregisters a system service on
+Microsoft Windows\&. This undoes the effects of the
+\fBregister\fR
+command\&.

+.SH "NAME"
+pg_dump \- extract a PostgreSQL database into a script file or other archive file
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBpg_dump\fR\ 'u
+\fBpg_dump\fR [\fIconnection\-option\fR...] [\fIoption\fR...] [\fIdbname\fR]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_dump
+is a utility for backing up a
+PostgreSQL
+database\&. It makes consistent backups even if the database is being used concurrently\&.
+pg_dump
+does not block other users accessing the database (readers or writers)\&.
+.PP
+pg_dump
+only dumps a single database\&. To back up an entire cluster, or to back up global objects that are common to all databases in a cluster (such as roles and tablespaces), use
+\fBpg_dumpall\fR(1)\&.
+.PP
+Dumps can be output in script or archive file formats\&. Script dumps are plain\-text files containing the SQL commands required to reconstruct the database to the state it was in at the time it was saved\&. To restore from such a script, feed it to
+\fBpsql\fR(1)\&. Script files can be used to reconstruct the database even on other machines and other architectures; with some modifications, even on other SQL database products\&.
+.PP
+The alternative archive file formats must be used with
+\fBpg_restore\fR(1)
+to rebuild the database\&. They allow
+pg_restore
+to be selective about what is restored, or even to reorder the items prior to being restored\&. The archive file formats are designed to be portable across architectures\&.
+.PP
+When used with one of the archive file formats and combined with
+pg_restore,
+pg_dump
+provides a flexible archival and transfer mechanism\&.
+pg_dump
+can be used to backup an entire database, then
+pg_restore
+can be used to examine the archive and/or select which parts of the database are to be restored\&. The most flexible output file formats are the
+\(lqcustom\(rq
+format (\fB\-Fc\fR) and the
+\(lqdirectory\(rq
+format (\fB\-Fd\fR)\&. They allow for selection and reordering of all archived items, support parallel restoration, and are compressed by default\&. The
+\(lqdirectory\(rq
+format is the only format that supports parallel dumps\&.
+.PP
+While running
+pg_dump, one should examine the output for any warnings (printed on standard error), especially in light of the limitations listed below\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control the content and format of the output\&.
+.PP
+\fIdbname\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the name of the database to be dumped\&. If this is not specified, the environment variable
+\fBPGDATABASE\fR
+is used\&. If that is not set, the user name specified for the connection is used\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-a\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-data\-only\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only the data, not the schema (data definitions)\&. Table data, large objects, and sequence values are dumped\&.
+.sp
+This option is similar to, but for historical reasons not identical to, specifying
+\fB\-\-section=data\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-b\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-blobs\fR
+.RS 4
+Include large objects in the dump\&. This is the default behavior except when
+\fB\-\-schema\fR,
+\fB\-\-table\fR, or
+\fB\-\-schema\-only\fR
+is specified\&. The
+\fB\-b\fR
+switch is therefore only useful to add large objects to dumps where a specific schema or table has been requested\&. Note that blobs are considered data and therefore will be included when
+\fB\-\-data\-only\fR
+is used, but not when
+\fB\-\-schema\-only\fR
+is\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-B\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-blobs\fR
+.RS 4
+Exclude large objects in the dump\&.
+.sp
+When both
+\fB\-b\fR
+and
+\fB\-B\fR
+are given, the behavior is to output large objects, when data is being dumped, see the
+\fB\-b\fR
+documentation\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-c\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+.RS 4
+Output commands to clean (drop) database objects prior to outputting the commands for creating them\&. (Unless
+\fB\-\-if\-exists\fR
+is also specified, restore might generate some harmless error messages, if any objects were not present in the destination database\&.)
+.sp
+This option is ignored when emitting an archive (non\-text) output file\&. For the archive formats, you can specify the option when you call
+\fBpg_restore\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-C\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-create\fR
+.RS 4
+Begin the output with a command to create the database itself and reconnect to the created database\&. (With a script of this form, it doesn\*(Aqt matter which database in the destination installation you connect to before running the script\&.) If
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+is also specified, the script drops and recreates the target database before reconnecting to it\&.
+.sp
+With
+\fB\-\-create\fR, the output also includes the database\*(Aqs comment if any, and any configuration variable settings that are specific to this database, that is, any
+\fBALTER DATABASE \&.\&.\&. SET \&.\&.\&.\fR
+and
+\fBALTER ROLE \&.\&.\&. IN DATABASE \&.\&.\&. SET \&.\&.\&.\fR
+commands that mention this database\&. Access privileges for the database itself are also dumped, unless
+\fB\-\-no\-acl\fR
+is specified\&.
+.sp
+This option is ignored when emitting an archive (non\-text) output file\&. For the archive formats, you can specify the option when you call
+\fBpg_restore\fR\&.
+.RE

+\fB\-e \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-extension=\fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only extensions matching
+\fIpattern\fR\&. When this option is not specified, all non\-system extensions in the target database will be dumped\&. Multiple extensions can be selected by writing multiple
+\fB\-e\fR
+switches\&. The
+\fIpattern\fR
+parameter is interpreted as a pattern according to the same rules used by
+psql\*(Aqs
+\ed
+commands (see
+Patterns), so multiple extensions can also be selected by writing wildcard characters in the pattern\&. When using wildcards, be careful to quote the pattern if needed to prevent the shell from expanding the wildcards\&.
+.sp
+Any configuration relation registered by
+\fBpg_extension_config_dump\fR
+is included in the dump if its extension is specified by
+\fB\-\-extension\fR\&.

+\fB\-e\fR
+is specified,

+.RE
+.PP
+c
+.br
+custom
+.RS 4
+Output a custom\-format archive suitable for input into

+.RE
+.PP
+d
+.br
+directory
+.RS 4
+Output a directory\-format archive suitable for input into
+pg_restore\&. This will create a directory with one file for each table and blob being dumped, plus a so\-called Table of Contents file describing the dumped objects in a machine\-readable format that
+pg_restore
+can read\&. A directory format archive can be manipulated with standard Unix tools; for example, files in an uncompressed archive can be compressed with the
+gzip
+tool\&. This format is compressed by default and also supports parallel dumps\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+t
+.br
+tar
+.RS 4
+Output a
+\fBtar\fR\-format archive suitable for input into
+pg_restore\&. The tar format is compatible with the directory format: extracting a tar\-format archive produces a valid directory\-format archive\&. However, the tar format does not support compression\&. Also, when using tar format the relative order of table data items cannot be changed during restore\&.
+.RE

+.br
+\fB\-\-jobs=\fR\fB\fInjobs\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Run the dump in parallel by dumping
+\fInjobs\fR
+tables simultaneously\&. This option may reduce the time needed to perform the dump but it also increases the load on the database server\&. You can only use this option with the directory output format because this is the only output format where multiple processes can write their data at the same time\&.
+.sp
+pg_dump
+will open
+\fInjobs\fR
++ 1 connections to the database, so make sure your
+max_connections
+setting is high enough to accommodate all connections\&.
+.sp
+Requesting exclusive locks on database objects while running a parallel dump could cause the dump to fail\&. The reason is that the
+pg_dump
+leader process requests shared locks (ACCESS SHARE) on the objects that the worker processes are going to dump later in order to make sure that nobody deletes them and makes them go away while the dump is running\&. If another client then requests an exclusive lock on a table, that lock will not be granted but will be queued waiting for the shared lock of the leader process to be released\&. Consequently any other access to the table will not be granted either and will queue after the exclusive lock request\&. This includes the worker process trying to dump the table\&. Without any precautions this would be a classic deadlock situation\&. To detect this conflict, the
+pg_dump
+worker process requests another shared lock using the
+NOWAIT
+option\&. If the worker process is not granted this shared lock, somebody else must have requested an exclusive lock in the meantime and there is no way to continue with the dump, so
+pg_dump
+has no choice but to abort the dump\&.
+.sp
+For a consistent backup, the database server needs to support synchronized snapshots, a feature that was introduced in
+PostgreSQL
+9\&.2 for primary servers and 10 for standbys\&. With this feature, database clients can ensure they see the same data set even though they use different connections\&.
+\fBpg_dump \-j\fR
+uses multiple database connections; it connects to the database once with the leader process and once again for each worker job\&. Without the synchronized snapshot feature, the different worker jobs wouldn\*(Aqt be guaranteed to see the same data in each connection, which could lead to an inconsistent backup\&.
+.sp
+If you want to run a parallel dump of a pre\-9\&.2 server, you need to make sure that the database content doesn\*(Aqt change from between the time the leader connects to the database until the last worker job has connected to the database\&. The easiest way to do this is to halt any data modifying processes (DDL and DML) accessing the database before starting the backup\&. You also need to specify the
+\fB\-\-no\-synchronized\-snapshots\fR
+parameter when running
+\fBpg_dump \-j\fR
+against a pre\-9\&.2
+PostgreSQL
+server\&.

+.SH "NAME"
+pg_dumpall \- extract a PostgreSQL database cluster into a script file
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBpg_dumpall\fR\ 'u
+\fBpg_dumpall\fR [\fIconnection\-option\fR...] [\fIoption\fR...]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_dumpall
+is a utility for writing out (\(lqdumping\(rq) all
+PostgreSQL
+databases of a cluster into one script file\&. The script file contains
+SQL
+commands that can be used as input to
+\fBpsql\fR(1)
+to restore the databases\&. It does this by calling
+\fBpg_dump\fR(1)
+for each database in the cluster\&.
+pg_dumpall
+also dumps global objects that are common to all databases, that is, database roles and tablespaces\&. (pg_dump
+does not save these objects\&.)
+.PP
+Since
+pg_dumpall
+reads tables from all databases you will most likely have to connect as a database superuser in order to produce a complete dump\&. Also you will need superuser privileges to execute the saved script in order to be allowed to add roles and create databases\&.
+.PP
+The SQL script will be written to the standard output\&. Use the
+\fB\-f\fR/\fB\-\-file\fR
+option or shell operators to redirect it into a file\&.
+.PP
+pg_dumpall
+needs to connect several times to the
+PostgreSQL
+server (once per database)\&. If you use password authentication it will ask for a password each time\&. It is convenient to have a
+~/\&.pgpass
+file in such cases\&. See
+Section\ \&34.16
+for more information\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control the content and format of the output\&.
+.PP
+\fB\-a\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-data\-only\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only the data, not the schema (data definitions)\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-c\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+.RS 4
+Include SQL commands to clean (drop) databases before recreating them\&.
+\fBDROP\fR
+commands for roles and tablespaces are added as well\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-E \fR\fB\fIencoding\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-encoding=\fR\fB\fIencoding\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Create the dump in the specified character set encoding\&. By default, the dump is created in the database encoding\&. (Another way to get the same result is to set the
+\fBPGCLIENTENCODING\fR
+environment variable to the desired dump encoding\&.)
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-f \fR\fB\fIfilename\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-file=\fR\fB\fIfilename\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Send output to the specified file\&. If this is omitted, the standard output is used\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-g\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-globals\-only\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only global objects (roles and tablespaces), no databases\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-O\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-owner\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not output commands to set ownership of objects to match the original database\&. By default,
+pg_dumpall
+issues
+\fBALTER OWNER\fR
+or
+\fBSET SESSION AUTHORIZATION\fR
+statements to set ownership of created schema elements\&. These statements will fail when the script is run unless it is started by a superuser (or the same user that owns all of the objects in the script)\&. To make a script that can be restored by any user, but will give that user ownership of all the objects, specify
+\fB\-O\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-r\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-roles\-only\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only roles, no databases or tablespaces\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-s\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-schema\-only\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only the object definitions (schema), not data\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-S \fR\fB\fIusername\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-superuser=\fR\fB\fIusername\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specify the superuser user name to use when disabling triggers\&. This is relevant only if
+\fB\-\-disable\-triggers\fR
+is used\&. (Usually, it\*(Aqs better to leave this out, and instead start the resulting script as superuser\&.)
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-t\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-tablespaces\-only\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump only tablespaces, no databases or roles\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-v\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-verbose\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies verbose mode\&. This will cause
+pg_dumpall
+to output start/stop times to the dump file, and progress messages to standard error\&. Repeating the option causes additional debug\-level messages to appear on standard error\&. The option is also passed down to
+pg_dump\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-V\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-version\fR
+.RS 4
+Print the
+pg_dumpall
+version and exit\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-x\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-privileges\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-acl\fR
+.RS 4
+Prevent dumping of access privileges (grant/revoke commands)\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-binary\-upgrade\fR
+.RS 4
+This option is for use by in\-place upgrade utilities\&. Its use for other purposes is not recommended or supported\&. The behavior of the option may change in future releases without notice\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-column\-inserts\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-attribute\-inserts\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump data as
+\fBINSERT\fR
+commands with explicit column names (INSERT INTO \fItable\fR (\fIcolumn\fR, \&.\&.\&.) VALUES \&.\&.\&.)\&. This will make restoration very slow; it is mainly useful for making dumps that can be loaded into non\-PostgreSQL
+databases\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-disable\-dollar\-quoting\fR
+.RS 4
+This option disables the use of dollar quoting for function bodies, and forces them to be quoted using SQL standard string syntax\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-disable\-triggers\fR
+.RS 4
+This option is relevant only when creating a data\-only dump\&. It instructs
+pg_dumpall
+to include commands to temporarily disable triggers on the target tables while the data is restored\&. Use this if you have referential integrity checks or other triggers on the tables that you do not want to invoke during data restore\&.
+.sp
+Presently, the commands emitted for
+\fB\-\-disable\-triggers\fR
+must be done as superuser\&. So, you should also specify a superuser name with
+\fB\-S\fR, or preferably be careful to start the resulting script as a superuser\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-exclude\-database=\fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump databases whose name matches
+\fIpattern\fR\&. Multiple patterns can be excluded by writing multiple
+\fB\-\-exclude\-database\fR
+switches\&. The
+\fIpattern\fR
+parameter is interpreted as a pattern according to the same rules used by
+psql\*(Aqs
+\ed
+commands (see
+Patterns
+below), so multiple databases can also be excluded by writing wildcard characters in the pattern\&. When using wildcards, be careful to quote the pattern if needed to prevent shell wildcard expansion\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-extra\-float\-digits=\fR\fB\fIndigits\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Use the specified value of extra_float_digits when dumping floating\-point data, instead of the maximum available precision\&. Routine dumps made for backup purposes should not use this option\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-if\-exists\fR
+.RS 4
+Use conditional commands (i\&.e\&., add an
+IF EXISTS
+clause) to drop databases and other objects\&. This option is not valid unless
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+is also specified\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-inserts\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump data as
+\fBINSERT\fR
+commands (rather than
+\fBCOPY\fR)\&. This will make restoration very slow; it is mainly useful for making dumps that can be loaded into non\-PostgreSQL
+databases\&. Note that the restore might fail altogether if you have rearranged column order\&. The
+\fB\-\-column\-inserts\fR
+option is safer, though even slower\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-load\-via\-partition\-root\fR
+.RS 4
+When dumping data for a table partition, make the
+\fBCOPY\fR
+or
+\fBINSERT\fR
+statements target the root of the partitioning hierarchy that contains it, rather than the partition itself\&. This causes the appropriate partition to be re\-determined for each row when the data is loaded\&. This may be useful when restoring data on a server where rows do not always fall into the same partitions as they did on the original server\&. That could happen, for example, if the partitioning column is of type text and the two systems have different definitions of the collation used to sort the partitioning column\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-lock\-wait\-timeout=\fR\fB\fItimeout\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not wait forever to acquire shared table locks at the beginning of the dump\&. Instead, fail if unable to lock a table within the specified
+\fItimeout\fR\&. The timeout may be specified in any of the formats accepted by
+\fBSET statement_timeout\fR\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-comments\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump comments\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-publications\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump publications\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-role\-passwords\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump passwords for roles\&. When restored, roles will have a null password, and password authentication will always fail until the password is set\&. Since password values aren\*(Aqt needed when this option is specified, the role information is read from the catalog view
+pg_roles
+instead of
+pg_authid\&. Therefore, this option also helps if access to
+pg_authid
+is restricted by some security policy\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-security\-labels\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump security labels\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-subscriptions\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump subscriptions\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-sync\fR
+.RS 4
+By default,
+\fBpg_dumpall\fR
+will wait for all files to be written safely to disk\&. This option causes
+\fBpg_dumpall\fR
+to return without waiting, which is faster, but means that a subsequent operating system crash can leave the dump corrupt\&. Generally, this option is useful for testing but should not be used when dumping data from production installation\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-tablespaces\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not output commands to create tablespaces nor select tablespaces for objects\&. With this option, all objects will be created in whichever tablespace is the default during restore\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-toast\-compression\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not output commands to set
+TOAST
+compression methods\&. With this option, all columns will be restored with the default compression setting\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-no\-unlogged\-table\-data\fR
+.RS 4
+Do not dump the contents of unlogged tables\&. This option has no effect on whether or not the table definitions (schema) are dumped; it only suppresses dumping the table data\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-on\-conflict\-do\-nothing\fR
+.RS 4
+Add
+ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING
+to
+\fBINSERT\fR
+commands\&. This option is not valid unless
+\fB\-\-inserts\fR
+or
+\fB\-\-column\-inserts\fR
+is also specified\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-quote\-all\-identifiers\fR
+.RS 4
+Force quoting of all identifiers\&. This option is recommended when dumping a database from a server whose
+PostgreSQL
+major version is different from
+pg_dumpall\*(Aqs, or when the output is intended to be loaded into a server of a different major version\&. By default,
+pg_dumpall
+quotes only identifiers that are reserved words in its own major version\&. This sometimes results in compatibility issues when dealing with servers of other versions that may have slightly different sets of reserved words\&. Using
+\fB\-\-quote\-all\-identifiers\fR
+prevents such issues, at the price of a harder\-to\-read dump script\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-rows\-per\-insert=\fR\fB\fInrows\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Dump data as
+\fBINSERT\fR
+commands (rather than
+\fBCOPY\fR)\&. Controls the maximum number of rows per
+\fBINSERT\fR
+command\&. The value specified must be a number greater than zero\&. Any error during restoring will cause only rows that are part of the problematic
+\fBINSERT\fR
+to be lost, rather than the entire table contents\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-use\-set\-session\-authorization\fR
+.RS 4
+Output SQL\-standard
+\fBSET SESSION AUTHORIZATION\fR
+commands instead of
+\fBALTER OWNER\fR
+commands to determine object ownership\&. This makes the dump more standards compatible, but depending on the history of the objects in the dump, might not restore properly\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-?\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-help\fR
+.RS 4
+Show help about
+pg_dumpall
+command line arguments, and exit\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+The following command\-line options control the database connection parameters\&.
+.PP
+\fB\-d \fR\fB\fIconnstr\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-dbname=\fR\fB\fIconnstr\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies parameters used to connect to the server, as a
+connection string; these will override any conflicting command line options\&.
+.sp
+The option is called
+\-\-dbname
+for consistency with other client applications, but because
+pg_dumpall
+needs to connect to many databases, the database name in the connection string will be ignored\&. Use the
+\-l
+option to specify the name of the database used for the initial connection, which will dump global objects and discover what other databases should be dumped\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-h \fR\fB\fIhost\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-host=\fR\fB\fIhost\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the host name of the machine on which the database server is running\&. If the value begins with a slash, it is used as the directory for the Unix domain socket\&. The default is taken from the
+\fBPGHOST\fR
+environment variable, if set, else a Unix domain socket connection is attempted\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-l \fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-database=\fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the name of the database to connect to for dumping global objects and discovering what other databases should be dumped\&. If not specified, the

+template1
+will be used\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-p \fR\fB\fIport\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-port=\fR\fB\fIport\fR\fR

+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-W\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-password\fR
+.RS 4
+Force
+pg_dumpall
+to prompt for a password before connecting to a database\&.
+.sp
+This option is never essential, since
+pg_dumpall
+will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password authentication\&. However,
+pg_dumpall
+will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password\&. In some cases it is worth typing
+\fB\-W\fR
+to avoid the extra connection attempt\&.
+.sp
+Note that the password prompt will occur again for each database to be dumped\&. Usually, it\*(Aqs better to set up a

+file than to rely on manual password entry\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-role=\fR\fB\fIrolename\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies a role name to be used to create the dump\&. This option causes
+pg_dumpall
+to issue a

+\fIrolename\fR
+command after connecting to the database\&. It is useful when the authenticated user (specified by
+\fB\-U\fR) lacks privileges needed by
+pg_dumpall, but can switch to a role with the required rights\&. Some installations have a policy against logging in directly as a superuser, and use of this option allows dumps to be made without violating the policy\&.

+This utility, like most other

+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+Since
+pg_dumpall
+calls
+pg_dump
+internally, some diagnostic messages will refer to
+pg_dump\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+option can be useful even when your intention is to restore the dump script into a fresh cluster\&. Use of
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+authorizes the script to drop and re\-create the built\-in
+postgres
+and
+template1
+databases, ensuring that those databases will retain the same properties (for instance, locale and encoding) that they had in the source cluster\&. Without the option, those databases will retain their existing database\-level properties, as well as any pre\-existing contents\&.
+.PP
+Once restored, it is wise to run
+\fBANALYZE\fR
+on each database so the optimizer has useful statistics\&. You can also run
+\fBvacuumdb \-a \-z\fR
+to analyze all databases\&.
+.PP
+The dump script should not be expected to run completely without errors\&. In particular, because the script will issue
+\fBCREATE ROLE\fR
+for every role existing in the source cluster, it is certain to get a
+\(lqrole already exists\(rq
+error for the bootstrap superuser, unless the destination cluster was initialized with a different bootstrap superuser name\&. This error is harmless and should be ignored\&. Use of the
+\fB\-\-clean\fR
+option is likely to produce additional harmless error messages about non\-existent objects, although you can minimize those by adding
+\fB\-\-if\-exists\fR\&.
+.PP
+pg_dumpall
+requires all needed tablespace directories to exist before the restore; otherwise, database creation will fail for databases in non\-default locations\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+To dump all databases:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$ \fBpg_dumpall > db\&.out\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.\}
+.nf

+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+It is not important to which database you connect here since the script file created by
+pg_dumpall
+will contain the appropriate commands to create and connect to the saved databases\&. An exception is that if you specified
+\fB\-\-clean\fR, you must connect to the
+postgres
+database initially; the script will attempt to drop other databases immediately, and that will fail for the database you are connected to\&.

+pg_receivewal \- stream write\-ahead logs from a PostgreSQL server
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBpg_receivewal\fR\ 'u
+\fBpg_receivewal\fR [\fIoption\fR...]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_receivewal
+is used to stream the write\-ahead log from a running
+PostgreSQL
+cluster\&. The write\-ahead log is streamed using the streaming replication protocol, and is written to a local directory of files\&. This directory can be used as the archive location for doing a restore using point\-in\-time recovery (see
+Section\ \&26.3)\&.
+.PP
+pg_receivewal
+streams the write\-ahead log in real time as it\*(Aqs being generated on the server, and does not wait for segments to complete like
+archive_command
+does\&. For this reason, it is not necessary to set
+archive_timeout
+when using
+pg_receivewal\&.
+.PP
+Unlike the WAL receiver of a PostgreSQL standby server,
+pg_receivewal
+by default flushes WAL data only when a WAL file is closed\&. The option
+\fB\-\-synchronous\fR
+must be specified to flush WAL data in real time\&. Since
+pg_receivewal
+does not apply WAL, you should not allow it to become a synchronous standby when
+synchronous_commit
+equals
+remote_apply\&. If it does, it will appear to be a standby that never catches up, and will cause transaction commits to block\&. To avoid this, you should either configure an appropriate value for
+synchronous_standby_names, or specify
+\fIapplication_name\fR
+for
+pg_receivewal
+that does not match it, or change the value of
+\fIsynchronous_commit\fR
+to something other than
+remote_apply\&.
+.PP
+The write\-ahead log is streamed over a regular
+PostgreSQL
+connection and uses the replication protocol\&. The connection must be made with a user having
+REPLICATION
+permissions (see
+Section\ \&22.2) or a superuser, and
+pg_hba\&.conf
+must permit the replication connection\&. The server must also be configured with
+max_wal_senders
+set high enough to leave at least one session available for the stream\&.
+.PP
+The starting point of the write\-ahead log streaming is calculated when
+pg_receivewal
+starts:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 1.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  1." 4.2
+.\}
+First, scan the directory where the WAL segment files are written and find the newest completed segment file, using as the starting point the beginning of the next WAL segment file\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 2.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  2." 4.2
+.\}
+If a starting point cannot be calculated with the previous method, the latest WAL flush location is used as reported by the server from an
+IDENTIFY_SYSTEM
+command\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+If the connection is lost, or if it cannot be initially established, with a non\-fatal error,
+pg_receivewal
+will retry the connection indefinitely, and reestablish streaming as soon as possible\&. To avoid this behavior, use the
+\-n
+parameter\&.
+.PP
+In the absence of fatal errors,
+pg_receivewal
+will run until terminated by the
+SIGINT
+signal (Control+C)\&.

+.sp
+When the replication client of
+pg_receivewal
+is configured on the server as a synchronous standby, then using a replication slot will report the flush position to the server, but only when a WAL file is closed\&. Therefore, that configuration will cause transactions on the primary to wait for a long time and effectively not work satisfactorily\&. The option
+\-\-synchronous

+When using

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBpg_resetwal\fR
+clears the write\-ahead log (WAL) and optionally resets some other control information stored in the
+pg_control
+file\&. This function is sometimes needed if these files have become corrupted\&. It should be used only as a last resort, when the server will not start due to such corruption\&.
+.PP
+After running this command, it should be possible to start the server, but bear in mind that the database might contain inconsistent data due to partially\-committed transactions\&. You should immediately dump your data, run
+\fBinitdb\fR, and restore\&. After restore, check for inconsistencies and repair as needed\&.
+.PP
+This utility can only be run by the user who installed the server, because it requires read/write access to the data directory\&. For safety reasons, you must specify the data directory on the command line\&.
+\fBpg_resetwal\fR
+does not use the environment variable
+\fBPGDATA\fR\&.
+.PP
+If
+\fBpg_resetwal\fR
+complains that it cannot determine valid data for
+pg_control, you can force it to proceed anyway by specifying the
+\fB\-f\fR
+(force) option\&. In this case plausible values will be substituted for the missing data\&. Most of the fields can be expected to match, but manual assistance might be needed for the next OID, next transaction ID and epoch, next multitransaction ID and offset, and WAL starting location fields\&. These fields can be set using the options discussed below\&. If you are not able to determine correct values for all these fields,
+\fB\-f\fR
+can still be used, but the recovered database must be treated with even more suspicion than usual: an immediate dump and restore is imperative\&.

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_restore
+is a utility for restoring a
+PostgreSQL
+database from an archive created by
+\fBpg_dump\fR(1)
+in one of the non\-plain\-text formats\&. It will issue the commands necessary to reconstruct the database to the state it was in at the time it was saved\&. The archive files also allow
+pg_restore
+to be selective about what is restored, or even to reorder the items prior to being restored\&. The archive files are designed to be portable across architectures\&.
+.PP
+pg_restore
+can operate in two modes\&. If a database name is specified,
+pg_restore
+connects to that database and restores archive contents directly into the database\&. Otherwise, a script containing the SQL commands necessary to rebuild the database is created and written to a file or standard output\&. This script output is equivalent to the plain text output format of
+pg_dump\&. Some of the options controlling the output are therefore analogous to
+pg_dump
+options\&.
+.PP
+Obviously,
+pg_restore
+cannot restore information that is not present in the archive file\&. For instance, if the archive was made using the
+\(lqdump data as \fBINSERT\fR commands\(rq
+option,
+pg_restore
+will not be able to load the data using
+\fBCOPY\fR
+statements\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"

+pg_restore
+accepts the following command line arguments\&.

+.sp
+When this option is used, the database named with

+.sp
+Each job is one process or one thread, depending on the operating system, and uses a separate connection to the server\&.
+.sp
+The optimal value for this option depends on the hardware setup of the server, of the client, and of the network\&. Factors include the number of CPU cores and the disk setup\&. A good place to start is the number of CPU cores on the server, but values larger than that can also lead to faster restore times in many cases\&. Of course, values that are too high will lead to decreased performance because of thrashing\&.

+\fBpg_rewind\fR [\fIoption\fR...] {\fB\-D\fR | \fB\-\-target\-pgdata\fR}\fI directory\fR {\fB\-\-source\-pgdata=\fR\fB\fIdirectory\fR\fR | \fB\-\-source\-server=\fR\fB\fIconnstr\fR\fR}
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_rewind
+is a tool for synchronizing a PostgreSQL cluster with another copy of the same cluster, after the clusters\*(Aq timelines have diverged\&. A typical scenario is to bring an old primary server back online after failover as a standby that follows the new primary\&.
+.PP
+After a successful rewind, the state of the target data directory is analogous to a base backup of the source data directory\&. Unlike taking a new base backup or using a tool like
+rsync,
+pg_rewind
+does not require comparing or copying unchanged relation blocks in the cluster\&. Only changed blocks from existing relation files are copied; all other files, including new relation files, configuration files, and WAL segments, are copied in full\&. As such the rewind operation is significantly faster than other approaches when the database is large and only a small fraction of blocks differ between the clusters\&.
+.PP
+pg_rewind
+examines the timeline histories of the source and target clusters to determine the point where they diverged, and expects to find WAL in the target cluster\*(Aqs
+pg_wal
+directory reaching all the way back to the point of divergence\&. The point of divergence can be found either on the target timeline, the source timeline, or their common ancestor\&. In the typical failover scenario where the target cluster was shut down soon after the divergence, this is not a problem, but if the target cluster ran for a long time after the divergence, its old WAL files might no longer be present\&. In this case, you can manually copy them from the WAL archive to the
+pg_wal
+directory, or run
+pg_rewind
+with the
+\-c
+option to automatically retrieve them from the WAL archive\&. The use of
+pg_rewind
+is not limited to failover, e\&.g\&., a standby server can be promoted, run some write transactions, and then rewound to become a standby again\&.
+.PP
+After running
+pg_rewind, WAL replay needs to complete for the data directory to be in a consistent state\&. When the target server is started again it will enter archive recovery and replay all WAL generated in the source server from the last checkpoint before the point of divergence\&. If some of the WAL was no longer available in the source server when
+pg_rewind
+was run, and therefore could not be copied by the
+pg_rewind
+session, it must be made available when the target server is started\&. This can be done by creating a
+recovery\&.signal
+file in the target data directory and by configuring a suitable
+restore_command
+in
+postgresql\&.conf\&.
+.PP
+pg_rewind
+requires that the target server either has the
+wal_log_hints
+option enabled in
+postgresql\&.conf
+or data checksums enabled when the cluster was initialized with
+initdb\&. Neither of these are currently on by default\&.
+full_page_writes
+must also be set to
+on, but is enabled by default\&.

+.br
+.PP
+If
+pg_rewind
+fails while processing, then the data folder of the target is likely not in a state that can be recovered\&. In such a case, taking a new fresh backup is recommended\&.
+.PP
+As
+pg_rewind
+copies configuration files entirely from the source, it may be required to correct the configuration used for recovery before restarting the target server, especially if the target is reintroduced as a standby of the source\&. If you restart the server after the rewind operation has finished but without configuring recovery, the target may again diverge from the primary\&.
+.PP
+pg_rewind
+will fail immediately if it finds files it cannot write directly to\&. This can happen for example when the source and the target server use the same file mapping for read\-only SSL keys and certificates\&. If such files are present on the target server it is recommended to remove them before running
+pg_rewind\&. After doing the rewind, some of those files may have been copied from the source, in which case it may be necessary to remove the data copied and restore back the set of links used before the rewind\&.

+When executing
+pg_rewind
+using an online cluster as source which has been recently promoted, it is necessary to execute a
+\fBCHECKPOINT\fR
+after promotion such that its control file reflects up\-to\-date timeline information, which is used by
+pg_rewind
+to check if the target cluster can be rewound using the designated source cluster\&.
+.SS "How It Works"
+.PP
+The basic idea is to copy all file system\-level changes from the source cluster to the target cluster:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 1.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  1." 4.2
+.\}
+Scan the WAL log of the target cluster, starting from the last checkpoint before the point where the source cluster\*(Aqs timeline history forked off from the target cluster\&. For each WAL record, record each data block that was touched\&. This yields a list of all the data blocks that were changed in the target cluster, after the source cluster forked off\&. If some of the WAL files are no longer available, try re\-running
+pg_rewind
+with the
+\fB\-c\fR
+option to search for the missing files in the WAL archive\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 2.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  2." 4.2
+.\}
+Copy all those changed blocks from the source cluster to the target cluster, either using direct file system access (\fB\-\-source\-pgdata\fR) or SQL (\fB\-\-source\-server\fR)\&. Relation files are now in a state equivalent to the moment of the last completed checkpoint prior to the point at which the WAL timelines of the source and target diverged plus the current state on the source of any blocks changed on the target after that divergence\&.
+.RE
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.ie n \{\
+\h'-04' 3.\h'+01'\c
+.\}
+.el \{\
+.sp -1
+.IP "  3." 4.2
+.\}
+Copy all other files, including new relation files, WAL segments,
+pg_xact, and configuration files from the source cluster to the target cluster\&. Similarly to base backups, the contents of the directories
+pg_dynshmem/,
+pg_notify/,
+pg_replslot/,
+pg_serial/,
+pg_snapshots/,
+pg_stat_tmp/, and
+pg_subtrans/
+are omitted from the data copied from the source cluster\&. The files
+backup_label,
+tablespace_map,
+pg_internal\&.init,
+postmaster\&.opts, and
+postmaster\&.pid, as well as any file or directory beginning with
+pgsql_tmp, are omitted\&.

+.SH "USAGE"
+.SS "Interpreting Results"
+.PP
+Good results will show most (>90%) individual timing calls take less than one microsecond\&. Average per loop overhead will be even lower, below 100 nanoseconds\&. This example from an Intel i7\-860 system using a TSC clock source shows excellent performance:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+Testing timing overhead for 3 seconds\&.
+Per loop time including overhead: 35\&.96 ns
+Histogram of timing durations:
+  < us   % of total      count

+    16      0\&.00000          2
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+Note that different units are used for the per loop time than the histogram\&. The loop can have resolution within a few nanoseconds (ns), while the individual timing calls can only resolve down to one microsecond (us)\&.
+.SS "Measuring Executor Timing Overhead"
+.PP
+When the query executor is running a statement using
+\fBEXPLAIN ANALYZE\fR, individual operations are timed as well as showing a summary\&. The overhead of your system can be checked by counting rows with the
+psql
+program:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+CREATE TABLE t AS SELECT * FROM generate_series(1,100000);
+\etiming
+SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t;
+EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT COUNT(*) FROM t;
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+The i7\-860 system measured runs the count query in 9\&.8 ms while the
+\fBEXPLAIN ANALYZE\fR
+version takes 16\&.6 ms, each processing just over 100,000 rows\&. That 6\&.8 ms difference means the timing overhead per row is 68 ns, about twice what pg_test_timing estimated it would be\&. Even that relatively small amount of overhead is making the fully timed count statement take almost 70% longer\&. On more substantial queries, the timing overhead would be less problematic\&.
+.SS "Changing Time Sources"
+.PP
+On some newer Linux systems, it\*(Aqs possible to change the clock source used to collect timing data at any time\&. A second example shows the slowdown possible from switching to the slower acpi_pm time source, on the same system used for the fast results above:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+# cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource
+tsc hpet acpi_pm
+# echo acpi_pm > /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/current_clocksource
+# pg_test_timing
+Per loop time including overhead: 722\&.92 ns
+Histogram of timing durations:
+  < us   % of total      count
+     1     27\&.84870    1155682
+     2     72\&.05956    2990371
+     4      0\&.07810       3241
+     8      0\&.01357        563
+    16      0\&.00007          3
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+In this configuration, the sample
+\fBEXPLAIN ANALYZE\fR
+above takes 115\&.9 ms\&. That\*(Aqs 1061 ns of timing overhead, again a small multiple of what\*(Aqs measured directly by this utility\&. That much timing overhead means the actual query itself is only taking a tiny fraction of the accounted for time, most of it is being consumed in overhead instead\&. In this configuration, any
+\fBEXPLAIN ANALYZE\fR
+totals involving many timed operations would be inflated significantly by timing overhead\&.
+.PP
+FreeBSD also allows changing the time source on the fly, and it logs information about the timer selected during boot:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+# dmesg | grep "Timecounter"
+Timecounter "ACPI\-fast" frequency 3579545 Hz quality 900
+Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz quality 0
+Timecounters tick every 10\&.000 msec
+Timecounter "TSC" frequency 2531787134 Hz quality 800
+# sysctl kern\&.timecounter\&.hardware=TSC
+kern\&.timecounter\&.hardware: ACPI\-fast \-> TSC
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+Other systems may only allow setting the time source on boot\&. On older Linux systems the "clock" kernel setting is the only way to make this sort of change\&. And even on some more recent ones, the only option you\*(Aqll see for a clock source is "jiffies"\&. Jiffies are the older Linux software clock implementation, which can have good resolution when it\*(Aqs backed by fast enough timing hardware, as in this example:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$ cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource
+jiffies
+$ dmesg | grep time\&.c

+.SS "Clock Hardware and Timing Accuracy"
+.PP
+Collecting accurate timing information is normally done on computers using hardware clocks with various levels of accuracy\&. With some hardware the operating systems can pass the system clock time almost directly to programs\&. A system clock can also be derived from a chip that simply provides timing interrupts, periodic ticks at some known time interval\&. In either case, operating system kernels provide a clock source that hides these details\&. But the accuracy of that clock source and how quickly it can return results varies based on the underlying hardware\&.
+.PP
+Inaccurate time keeping can result in system instability\&. Test any change to the clock source very carefully\&. Operating system defaults are sometimes made to favor reliability over best accuracy\&. And if you are using a virtual machine, look into the recommended time sources compatible with it\&. Virtual hardware faces additional difficulties when emulating timers, and there are often per operating system settings suggested by vendors\&.
+.PP
+The Time Stamp Counter (TSC) clock source is the most accurate one available on current generation CPUs\&. It\*(Aqs the preferred way to track the system time when it\*(Aqs supported by the operating system and the TSC clock is reliable\&. There are several ways that TSC can fail to provide an accurate timing source, making it unreliable\&. Older systems can have a TSC clock that varies based on the CPU temperature, making it unusable for timing\&. Trying to use TSC on some older multicore CPUs can give a reported time that\*(Aqs inconsistent among multiple cores\&. This can result in the time going backwards, a problem this program checks for\&. And even the newest systems can fail to provide accurate TSC timing with very aggressive power saving configurations\&.
+.PP
+Newer operating systems may check for the known TSC problems and switch to a slower, more stable clock source when they are seen\&. If your system supports TSC time but doesn\*(Aqt default to that, it may be disabled for a good reason\&. And some operating systems may not detect all the possible problems correctly, or will allow using TSC even in situations where it\*(Aqs known to be inaccurate\&.
+.PP
+The High Precision Event Timer (HPET) is the preferred timer on systems where it\*(Aqs available and TSC is not accurate\&. The timer chip itself is programmable to allow up to 100 nanosecond resolution, but you may not see that much accuracy in your system clock\&.
+.PP
+Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) provides a Power Management (PM) Timer, which Linux refers to as the acpi_pm\&. The clock derived from acpi_pm will at best provide 300 nanosecond resolution\&.
+.PP
+Timers used on older PC hardware include the 8254 Programmable Interval Timer (PIT), the real\-time clock (RTC), the Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller (APIC) timer, and the Cyclone timer\&. These timers aim for millisecond resolution\&.

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_upgrade
+(formerly called
+pg_migrator) allows data stored in
+PostgreSQL
+data files to be upgraded to a later
+PostgreSQL
+major version without the data dump/restore typically required for major version upgrades, e\&.g\&., from 9\&.5\&.8 to 9\&.6\&.4 or from 10\&.7 to 11\&.2\&. It is not required for minor version upgrades, e\&.g\&., from 9\&.6\&.2 to 9\&.6\&.3 or from 10\&.1 to 10\&.2\&.
+.PP
+Major PostgreSQL releases regularly add new features that often change the layout of the system tables, but the internal data storage format rarely changes\&.
+pg_upgrade
+uses this fact to perform rapid upgrades by creating new system tables and simply reusing the old user data files\&. If a future major release ever changes the data storage format in a way that makes the old data format unreadable,
+pg_upgrade
+will not be usable for such upgrades\&. (The community will attempt to avoid such situations\&.)
+.PP
+pg_upgrade
+does its best to make sure the old and new clusters are binary\-compatible, e\&.g\&., by checking for compatible compile\-time settings, including 32/64\-bit binaries\&. It is important that any external modules are also binary compatible, though this cannot be checked by
+pg_upgrade\&.

+Run pg_upgrade: Always run the

+pg_upgrade
+requires the specification of the old and new cluster\*(Aqs data and executable (bin) directories\&. You can also specify user and port values, and whether you want the data files linked or cloned instead of the default copy behavior\&.
+.sp
+If you use link mode, the upgrade will be much faster (no file copying) and use less disk space, but you will not be able to access your old cluster once you start the new cluster after the upgrade\&. Link mode also requires that the old and new cluster data directories be in the same file system\&. (Tablespaces and
+pg_wal
+can be on different file systems\&.) Clone mode provides the same speed and disk space advantages but does not cause the old cluster to be unusable once the new cluster is started\&. Clone mode also requires that the old and new data directories be in the same file system\&. This mode is only available on certain operating systems and file systems\&.
+.sp
+The
+\fB\-\-jobs\fR
+option allows multiple CPU cores to be used for copying/linking of files and to dump and restore database schemas in parallel; a good place to start is the maximum of the number of CPU cores and tablespaces\&.

+\fBpg_upgrade \-\-check\fR

+\fBpg_upgrade\fR
+requires write permission in the current directory\&.
+.sp
+Obviously, no one should be accessing the clusters during the upgrade\&.
+pg_upgrade
+defaults to running servers on port 50432 to avoid unintended client connections\&. You can use the same port number for both clusters when doing an upgrade because the old and new clusters will not be running at the same time\&. However, when checking an old running server, the old and new port numbers must be different\&.
+.sp

+\fBpg_upgrade\fR
+will exit and you will have to revert to the old cluster as outlined in

+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBpg_verifybackup\fR\ 'u
+\fBpg_verifybackup\fR [\fIoption\fR...]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pg_verifybackup
+is used to check the integrity of a database cluster backup taken using
+\fBpg_basebackup\fR
+against a
+backup_manifest
+generated by the server at the time of the backup\&. The backup must be stored in the "plain" format; a "tar" format backup can be checked after extracting it\&.
+.PP
+It is important to note that the validation which is performed by
+pg_verifybackup
+does not and cannot include every check which will be performed by a running server when attempting to make use of the backup\&. Even if you use this tool, you should still perform test restores and verify that the resulting databases work as expected and that they appear to contain the correct data\&. However,
+pg_verifybackup
+can detect many problems that commonly occur due to storage problems or user error\&.
+.PP
+Backup verification proceeds in four stages\&. First,
+pg_verifybackup
+reads the
+backup_manifest
+file\&. If that file does not exist, cannot be read, is malformed, or fails verification against its own internal checksum,
+pg_verifybackup
+will terminate with a fatal error\&.
+.PP
+Second,
+pg_verifybackup
+will attempt to verify that the data files currently stored on disk are exactly the same as the data files which the server intended to send, with some exceptions that are described below\&. Extra and missing files will be detected, with a few exceptions\&. This step will ignore the presence or absence of, or any modifications to,
+postgresql\&.auto\&.conf,
+standby\&.signal, and
+recovery\&.signal, because it is expected that these files may have been created or modified as part of the process of taking the backup\&. It also won\*(Aqt complain about a
+backup_manifest
+file in the target directory or about anything inside
+pg_wal, even though these files won\*(Aqt be listed in the backup manifest\&. Only files are checked; the presence or absence of directories is not verified, except indirectly: if a directory is missing, any files it should have contained will necessarily also be missing\&.
+.PP
+Next,
+pg_verifybackup
+will checksum all the files, compare the checksums against the values in the manifest, and emit errors for any files for which the computed checksum does not match the checksum stored in the manifest\&. This step is not performed for any files which produced errors in the previous step, since they are already known to have problems\&. Files which were ignored in the previous step are also ignored in this step\&.
+.PP
+Finally,
+pg_verifybackup
+will use the manifest to verify that the write\-ahead log records which will be needed to recover the backup are present and that they can be read and parsed\&. The
+backup_manifest
+contains information about which write\-ahead log records will be needed, and
+pg_verifybackup
+will use that information to invoke
+pg_waldump
+to parse those write\-ahead log records\&. The
+\-\-quiet
+flag will be used, so that
+pg_waldump
+will only report errors, without producing any other output\&. While this level of verification is sufficient to detect obvious problems such as a missing file or one whose internal checksums do not match, they aren\*(Aqt extensive enough to detect every possible problem that might occur when attempting to recover\&. For instance, a server bug that produces write\-ahead log records that have the correct checksums but specify nonsensical actions can\*(Aqt be detected by this method\&.
+.PP
+Note that if extra WAL files which are not required to recover the backup are present, they will not be checked by this tool, although a separate invocation of
+pg_waldump
+could be used for that purpose\&. Also note that WAL verification is version\-specific: you must use the version of
+pg_verifybackup, and thus of
+pg_waldump, which pertains to the backup being checked\&. In contrast, the data file integrity checks should work with any version of the server that generates a
+backup_manifest
+file\&.

+.SH "NAME"
+pgbench \- run a benchmark test on PostgreSQL
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"

+.HP \w'\fBpgbench\fR\ 'u
+\fBpgbench\fR [\fIoption\fR...] [\fIdbname\fR]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+pgbench
+is a simple program for running benchmark tests on
+PostgreSQL\&. It runs the same sequence of SQL commands over and over, possibly in multiple concurrent database sessions, and then calculates the average transaction rate (transactions per second)\&. By default,
+pgbench
+tests a scenario that is loosely based on TPC\-B, involving five
+\fBSELECT\fR,
+\fBUPDATE\fR, and
+\fBINSERT\fR
+commands per transaction\&. However, it is easy to test other cases by writing your own transaction script files\&.
+.PP
+Typical output from
+pgbench
+looks like:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+transaction type: <builtin: TPC\-B (sort of)>
+scaling factor: 10
+query mode: simple
+number of clients: 10
+number of threads: 1
+number of transactions per client: 1000
+number of transactions actually processed: 10000/10000
+latency average = 11\&.013 ms
+latency stddev = 7\&.351 ms
+initial connection time = 45\&.758 ms
+tps = 896\&.967014 (without initial connection time)
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+The first six lines report some of the most important parameter settings\&. The next line reports the number of transactions completed and intended (the latter being just the product of number of clients and number of transactions per client); these will be equal unless the run failed before completion\&. (In
+\fB\-T\fR
+mode, only the actual number of transactions is printed\&.) The last line reports the number of transactions per second\&.
+.PP
+The default TPC\-B\-like transaction test requires specific tables to be set up beforehand\&.
+pgbench
+should be invoked with the
+\fB\-i\fR
+(initialize) option to create and populate these tables\&. (When you are testing a custom script, you don\*(Aqt need this step, but will instead need to do whatever setup your test needs\&.) Initialization looks like:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+pgbench \-i [ \fIother\-options\fR ] \fIdbname\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+where
+\fIdbname\fR
+is the name of the already\-created database to test in\&. (You may also need
+\fB\-h\fR,
+\fB\-p\fR, and/or
+\fB\-U\fR
+options to specify how to connect to the database server\&.)
+.if n \{\
+.sp
+.\}
+.RS 4
+.it 1 an-trap
+.nr an-no-space-flag 1
+.nr an-break-flag 1
+.br
+.ps +1
+\fBCaution\fR
+.ps -1
+.br
+.PP
+pgbench \-i
+creates four tables
+pgbench_accounts,
+pgbench_branches,
+pgbench_history, and
+pgbench_tellers, destroying any existing tables of these names\&. Be very careful to use another database if you have tables having these names!
+.sp .5v
+.RE
+.PP
+At the default
+\(lqscale factor\(rq
+of 1, the tables initially contain this many rows:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+table                   # of rows
+\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
+pgbench_branches        1
+pgbench_tellers         10
+pgbench_accounts        100000
+pgbench_history         0
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+You can (and, for most purposes, probably should) increase the number of rows by using the
+\fB\-s\fR
+(scale factor) option\&. The
+\fB\-F\fR
+(fillfactor) option might also be used at this point\&.
+.PP
+Once you have done the necessary setup, you can run your benchmark with a command that doesn\*(Aqt include
+\fB\-i\fR, that is
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+pgbench [ \fIoptions\fR ] \fIdbname\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+In nearly all cases, you\*(Aqll need some options to make a useful test\&. The most important options are
+\fB\-c\fR
+(number of clients),
+\fB\-t\fR
+(number of transactions),
+\fB\-T\fR
+(time limit), and
+\fB\-f\fR
+(specify a custom script file)\&. See below for a full list\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+The following is divided into three subsections\&. Different options are used during database initialization and while running benchmarks, but some options are useful in both cases\&.
+.SS "Initialization Options"
+.PP
+pgbench
+accepts the following command\-line initialization arguments:
+.PP
+\fIdbname\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the name of the database to test in\&. If this is not specified, the environment variable
+\fBPGDATABASE\fR
+is used\&. If that is not set, the user name specified for the connection is used\&.

+g or G (Generate data, client\-side or server\-side)
+.RS 4
+Generate data and load it into the standard tables, replacing any data already present\&.
+.sp
+With
+g
+(client\-side data generation), data is generated in
+\fBpgbench\fR
+client and then sent to the server\&. This uses the client/server bandwidth extensively through a
+\fBCOPY\fR\&. Using
+g
+causes logging to print one message every 100,000 rows while generating data for the
+pgbench_accounts
+table\&.
+.sp
+With
+G
+(server\-side data generation), only small queries are sent from the
+\fBpgbench\fR
+client and then data is actually generated in the server\&. No significant bandwidth is required for this variant, but the server will do more work\&. Using
+G
+causes logging not to print any progress message while generating data\&.

+.sp
+The rate is targeted by starting transactions along a Poisson\-distributed schedule time line\&. The expected start time schedule moves forward based on when the client first started, not when the previous transaction ended\&. That approach means that when transactions go past their original scheduled end time, it is possible for later ones to catch up again\&.
+.sp
+When throttling is active, the transaction latency reported at the end of the run is calculated from the scheduled start times, so it includes the time each transaction had to wait for the previous transaction to finish\&. The wait time is called the schedule lag time, and its average and maximum are also reported separately\&. The transaction latency with respect to the actual transaction start time, i\&.e\&., the time spent executing the transaction in the database, can be computed by subtracting the schedule lag time from the reported latency\&.
+.sp
+If
+\fB\-\-latency\-limit\fR

+\fB\-\-rate\fR, a transaction can lag behind so much that it is already over the latency limit when the previous transaction ends, because the latency is calculated from the scheduled start time\&. Such transactions are not sent to the server, but are skipped altogether and counted separately\&.
+.sp
+A high schedule lag time is an indication that the system cannot process transactions at the specified rate, with the chosen number of clients and threads\&. When the average transaction execution time is longer than the scheduled interval between each transaction, each successive transaction will fall further behind, and the schedule lag time will keep increasing the longer the test run is\&. When that happens, you will have to reduce the specified transaction rate\&.

+If multiple script files are specified, the averages are reported separately for each script file\&.
+.PP
+Note that collecting the additional timing information needed for per\-statement latency computation adds some overhead\&. This will slow average execution speed and lower the computed TPS\&. The amount of slowdown varies significantly depending on platform and hardware\&. Comparing average TPS values with and without latency reporting enabled is a good way to measure if the timing overhead is significant\&.
+.SS "Good Practices"
+.PP
+It is very easy to use
+pgbench
+to produce completely meaningless numbers\&. Here are some guidelines to help you get useful results\&.
+.PP
+In the first place,
+\fInever\fR
+believe any test that runs for only a few seconds\&. Use the
+\fB\-t\fR
+or
+\fB\-T\fR
+option to make the run last at least a few minutes, so as to average out noise\&. In some cases you could need hours to get numbers that are reproducible\&. It\*(Aqs a good idea to try the test run a few times, to find out if your numbers are reproducible or not\&.
+.PP
+For the default TPC\-B\-like test scenario, the initialization scale factor (\fB\-s\fR) should be at least as large as the largest number of clients you intend to test (\fB\-c\fR); else you\*(Aqll mostly be measuring update contention\&. There are only
+\fB\-s\fR
+rows in the
+pgbench_branches
+table, and every transaction wants to update one of them, so
+\fB\-c\fR
+values in excess of
+\fB\-s\fR
+will undoubtedly result in lots of transactions blocked waiting for other transactions\&.
+.PP
+The default test scenario is also quite sensitive to how long it\*(Aqs been since the tables were initialized: accumulation of dead rows and dead space in the tables changes the results\&. To understand the results you must keep track of the total number of updates and when vacuuming happens\&. If autovacuum is enabled it can result in unpredictable changes in measured performance\&.
+.PP
+A limitation of
+pgbench
+is that it can itself become the bottleneck when trying to test a large number of client sessions\&. This can be alleviated by running
+pgbench
+on a different machine from the database server, although low network latency will be essential\&. It might even be useful to run several
+pgbench
+instances concurrently, on several client machines, against the same database server\&.
+.SS "Security"
+.PP
+If untrusted users have access to a database that has not adopted a
+secure schema usage pattern, do not run
+pgbench
+in that database\&.
+pgbench
+uses unqualified names and does not manipulate the search path\&.

+.SH "NAME"
+postgres \- PostgreSQL database server
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBpostgres\fR\ 'u
+\fBpostgres\fR [\fIoption\fR...]
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBpostgres\fR
+is the
+PostgreSQL
+database server\&. In order for a client application to access a database it connects (over a network or locally) to a running
+\fBpostgres\fR
+instance\&. The
+\fBpostgres\fR
+instance then starts a separate server process to handle the connection\&.
+.PP
+One
+\fBpostgres\fR
+instance always manages the data of exactly one database cluster\&. A database cluster is a collection of databases that is stored at a common file system location (the
+\(lqdata area\(rq)\&. More than one
+\fBpostgres\fR
+instance can run on a system at one time, so long as they use different data areas and different communication ports (see below)\&. When
+\fBpostgres\fR
+starts it needs to know the location of the data area\&. The location must be specified by the
+\fB\-D\fR
+option or the
+\fBPGDATA\fR
+environment variable; there is no default\&. Typically,
+\fB\-D\fR
+or
+\fBPGDATA\fR
+points directly to the data area directory created by
+\fBinitdb\fR(1)\&. Other possible file layouts are discussed in
+Section\ \&20.2\&.
+.PP
+By default
+\fBpostgres\fR
+starts in the foreground and prints log messages to the standard error stream\&. In practical applications
+\fBpostgres\fR
+should be started as a background process, perhaps at boot time\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fBpostgres\fR
+command can also be called in single\-user mode\&. The primary use for this mode is during bootstrapping by
+\fBinitdb\fR(1)\&. Sometimes it is used for debugging or disaster recovery; note that running a single\-user server is not truly suitable for debugging the server, since no realistic interprocess communication and locking will happen\&. When invoked in single\-user mode from the shell, the user can enter queries and the results will be printed to the screen, but in a form that is more useful for developers than end users\&. In the single\-user mode, the session user will be set to the user with ID 1, and implicit superuser powers are granted to this user\&. This user does not actually have to exist, so the single\-user mode can be used to manually recover from certain kinds of accidental damage to the system catalogs\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\fBpostgres\fR
+accepts the following command\-line arguments\&. For a detailed discussion of the options consult
+Chapter\ \&20\&. You can save typing most of these options by setting up a configuration file\&. Some (safe) options can also be set from the connecting client in an application\-dependent way to apply only for that session\&. For example, if the environment variable
+\fBPGOPTIONS\fR
+is set, then
+libpq\-based clients will pass that string to the server, which will interpret it as
+\fBpostgres\fR
+command\-line options\&.
+.SS "General Purpose"
+.PP
+\fB\-B \fR\fB\fInbuffers\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the number of shared buffers for use by the server processes\&. The default value of this parameter is chosen automatically by
+initdb\&. Specifying this option is equivalent to setting the
+shared_buffers
+configuration parameter\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-c \fR\fB\fIname\fR\fR\fB=\fR\fB\fIvalue\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets a named run\-time parameter\&. The configuration parameters supported by
+PostgreSQL
+are described in
+Chapter\ \&20\&. Most of the other command line options are in fact short forms of such a parameter assignment\&.
+\fB\-c\fR
+can appear multiple times to set multiple parameters\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-C \fR\fB\fIname\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Prints the value of the named run\-time parameter, and exits\&. (See the
+\fB\-c\fR
+option above for details\&.) This can be used on a running server, and returns values from
+postgresql\&.conf, modified by any parameters supplied in this invocation\&. It does not reflect parameters supplied when the cluster was started\&.
+.sp
+This option is meant for other programs that interact with a server instance, such as
+\fBpg_ctl\fR(1), to query configuration parameter values\&. User\-facing applications should instead use
+\fBSHOW\fR
+or the
+pg_settings
+view\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-d \fR\fB\fIdebug\-level\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the debug level\&. The higher this value is set, the more debugging output is written to the server log\&. Values are from 1 to 5\&. It is also possible to pass
+\-d 0
+for a specific session, which will prevent the server log level of the parent
+\fBpostgres\fR
+process from being propagated to this session\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-D \fR\fB\fIdatadir\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the file system location of the database configuration files\&. See
+Section\ \&20.2
+for details\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-e\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the default date style to
+\(lqEuropean\(rq, that is
+DMY
+ordering of input date fields\&. This also causes the day to be printed before the month in certain date output formats\&. See
+Section\ \&8.5
+for more information\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-F\fR
+.RS 4
+Disables
+\fBfsync\fR

+.PP
+\fB\-h \fR\fB\fIhostname\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the IP host name or address on which
+\fBpostgres\fR
+is to listen for TCP/IP connections from client applications\&. The value can also be a comma\-separated list of addresses, or
+*
+to specify listening on all available interfaces\&. An empty value specifies not listening on any IP addresses, in which case only Unix\-domain sockets can be used to connect to the server\&. Defaults to listening only on
+localhost\&. Specifying this option is equivalent to setting the
+listen_addresses
+configuration parameter\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-i\fR
+.RS 4
+Allows remote clients to connect via TCP/IP (Internet domain) connections\&. Without this option, only local connections are accepted\&. This option is equivalent to setting
+\fIlisten_addresses\fR
+to
+*
+in
+postgresql\&.conf
+or via
+\fB\-h\fR\&.
+.sp
+This option is deprecated since it does not allow access to the full functionality of
+listen_addresses\&. It\*(Aqs usually better to set
+\fIlisten_addresses\fR
+directly\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-k \fR\fB\fIdirectory\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the directory of the Unix\-domain socket on which
+\fBpostgres\fR
+is to listen for connections from client applications\&. The value can also be a comma\-separated list of directories\&. An empty value specifies not listening on any Unix\-domain sockets, in which case only TCP/IP sockets can be used to connect to the server\&. The default value is normally
+/tmp, but that can be changed at build time\&. Specifying this option is equivalent to setting the
+unix_socket_directories
+configuration parameter\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-l\fR
+.RS 4
+Enables secure connections using
+SSL\&.
+PostgreSQL
+must have been compiled with support for
+SSL
+for this option to be available\&. For more information on using
+SSL, refer to
+Section\ \&19.9\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-N \fR\fB\fImax\-connections\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Sets the maximum number of client connections that this server will accept\&. The default value of this parameter is chosen automatically by
+initdb\&. Specifying this option is equivalent to setting the
+max_connections
+configuration parameter\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-p \fR\fB\fIport\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the TCP/IP port or local Unix domain socket file extension on which
+\fBpostgres\fR
+is to listen for connections from client applications\&. Defaults to the value of the
+\fBPGPORT\fR
+environment variable, or if
+\fBPGPORT\fR
+is not set, then defaults to the value established during compilation (normally 5432)\&. If you specify a port other than the default port, then all client applications must specify the same port using either command\-line options or
+\fBPGPORT\fR\&.

+.PP
+To terminate the

+server normally, the signals
+SIGTERM,

+SIGHUP
+to an individual server process, but that is usually not sensible\&.
+.PP
+To cancel a running query, send the
+SIGINT
+signal to the process running that command\&. To terminate a backend process cleanly, send
+SIGTERM
+to that process\&. See also
+\fBpg_cancel_backend\fR

+\fBpg_terminate_backend\fR
+in
+Section\ \&9.27.2

+.PP
+The
+\fBpostgres\fR
+server uses
+SIGQUIT
+to tell subordinate server processes to terminate without normal cleanup\&. This signal
+\fIshould not\fR
+be used by users\&. It is also unwise to send
+SIGKILL
+to a server process \(em the main
+\fBpostgres\fR
+process will interpret this as a crash and will force all the sibling processes to quit as part of its standard crash\-recovery procedure\&.
+.SH "BUGS"
+.PP
+The
+\fB\-\-\fR
+options will not work on
+FreeBSD
+or
+OpenBSD\&. Use
+\fB\-c\fR
+instead\&. This is a bug in the affected operating systems; a future release of
+PostgreSQL
+will provide a workaround if this is not fixed\&.
+.SH "SINGLE\-USER MODE"
+.PP
+To start a single\-user mode server, use a command like
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+\fBpostgres \-\-single \-D /usr/local/pgsql/data \fR\fB\fIother\-options\fR\fR\fB my_database\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+Provide the correct path to the database directory with
+\fB\-D\fR, or make sure that the environment variable
+\fBPGDATA\fR
+is set\&. Also specify the name of the particular database you want to work in\&.
+.PP
+Normally, the single\-user mode server treats newline as the command entry terminator; there is no intelligence about semicolons, as there is in
+psql\&. To continue a command across multiple lines, you must type backslash just before each newline except the last one\&. The backslash and adjacent newline are both dropped from the input command\&. Note that this will happen even when within a string literal or comment\&.
+.PP
+But if you use the
+\fB\-j\fR
+command line switch, a single newline does not terminate command entry; instead, the sequence semicolon\-newline\-newline does\&. That is, type a semicolon immediately followed by a completely empty line\&. Backslash\-newline is not treated specially in this mode\&. Again, there is no intelligence about such a sequence appearing within a string literal or comment\&.
+.PP
+In either input mode, if you type a semicolon that is not just before or part of a command entry terminator, it is considered a command separator\&. When you do type a command entry terminator, the multiple statements you\*(Aqve entered will be executed as a single transaction\&.
+.PP
+To quit the session, type
+EOF
+(Control+D, usually)\&. If you\*(Aqve entered any text since the last command entry terminator, then
+EOF
+will be taken as a command entry terminator, and another
+EOF
+will be needed to exit\&.
+.PP
+Note that the single\-user mode server does not provide sophisticated line\-editing features (no command history, for example)\&. Single\-user mode also does not do any background processing, such as automatic checkpoints or replication\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+To start
+\fBpostgres\fR
+in the background using default values, type:
+.sp
+.if n \{\

+.nf

+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.\}
+.sp
+Either form overrides whatever setting might exist for
+\fIwork_mem\fR
+in
+postgresql\&.conf\&. Notice that underscores in parameter names can be written as either underscore or dash on the command line\&. Except for short\-term experiments, it\*(Aqs probably better practice to edit the setting in

+.PP
+psql
+is a terminal\-based front\-end to
+PostgreSQL\&. It enables you to type in queries interactively, issue them to
+PostgreSQL, and see the query results\&. Alternatively, input can be from a file or from command line arguments\&. In addition,
+psql
+provides a number of meta\-commands and various shell\-like features to facilitate writing scripts and automating a wide variety of tasks\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+\fB\-a\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-echo\-all\fR

+\fB\-c \fR\fB\fIcommand\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-command=\fR\fB\fIcommand\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies that
+psql
+is to execute the given command string,
+\fIcommand\fR\&. This option can be repeated and combined in any order with the
+\fB\-f\fR
+option\&. When either
+\fB\-c\fR
+or
+\fB\-f\fR
+is specified,
+psql
+does not read commands from standard input; instead it terminates after processing all the
+\fB\-c\fR
+and
+\fB\-f\fR
+options in sequence\&.
+.sp
+\fIcommand\fR
+must be either a command string that is completely parsable by the server (i\&.e\&., it contains no
+psql\-specific features), or a single backslash command\&. Thus you cannot mix
+SQL
+and
+psql
+meta\-commands within a
+\fB\-c\fR
+option\&. To achieve that, you could use repeated
+\fB\-c\fR
+options or pipe the string into
+psql, for example:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+psql \-c \*(Aq\ex\*(Aq \-c \*(AqSELECT * FROM foo;\*(Aq
+.fi
+.if n \{\

+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+(\e\e
+is the separator meta\-command\&.)
+.sp
+Each
+SQL
+command string passed to
+\fB\-c\fR
+is sent to the server as a single request\&. Because of this, the server executes it as a single transaction even if the string contains multiple
+SQL
+commands, unless there are explicit
+\fBBEGIN\fR/\fBCOMMIT\fR
+commands included in the string to divide it into multiple transactions\&. (See
+Section\ \&53.2.2.1
+for more details about how the server handles multi\-query strings\&.) Also,
+psql
+only prints the result of the last
+SQL
+command in the string\&. This is different from the behavior when the same string is read from a file or fed to
+psql\*(Aqs standard input, because then
+psql
+sends each
+SQL
+command separately\&.
+.sp
+Because of this behavior, putting more than one SQL command in a single
+\fB\-c\fR
+string often has unexpected results\&. It\*(Aqs better to use repeated
+\fB\-c\fR
+commands or feed multiple commands to
+psql\*(Aqs standard input, either using
+echo
+as illustrated above, or via a shell here\-document, for example:
+.sp
+.if n \{\

+meta\-command\&. This can be used to intersperse interactive input with input from files\&. Note however that Readline is not used in this case (much as if
+\fB\-n\fR
+had been specified)\&.
+.sp
+Using this option is subtly different from writing
+psql < \fIfilename\fR\&. In general, both will do what you expect, but using
+\-f
+enables some nice features such as error messages with line numbers\&. There is also a slight chance that using this option will reduce the start\-up overhead\&.

+will connect via a Unix\-domain socket to a server on the local host, or via TCP/IP to
+localhost
+on machines that don\*(Aqt have Unix\-domain sockets\&. The default port number is determined at compile time\&. Since the database server uses the same default, you will not have to specify the port in most cases\&. The default user name is your operating\-system user name, as is the default database name\&. Note that you cannot just connect to any database under any user name\&. Your database administrator should have informed you about your access rights\&.
+.PP
+When the defaults aren\*(Aqt quite right, you can save yourself some typing by setting the environment variables
+\fBPGDATABASE\fR,
+\fBPGHOST\fR,
+\fBPGPORT\fR
+and/or
+\fBPGUSER\fR
+to appropriate values\&. (For additional environment variables, see
+Section\ \&34.15\&.) It is also convenient to have a
+~/\&.pgpass
+file to avoid regularly having to type in passwords\&. See
+Section\ \&34.16
+for more information\&.
+.PP
+An alternative way to specify connection parameters is in a
+\fIconninfo\fR
+string or a
+URI, which is used instead of a database name\&. This mechanism give you very wide control over the connection\&. For example:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$ \fBpsql "service=myservice sslmode=require"\fR
+$ \fBpsql postgresql://dbmaster:5433/mydb?sslmode=require\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+This way you can also use
+LDAP
+for connection parameter lookup as described in
+Section\ \&34.18\&. See
+Section\ \&34.1.2
+for more information on all the available connection options\&.
+.PP
+If the connection could not be made for any reason (e\&.g\&., insufficient privileges, server is not running on the targeted host, etc\&.),
+psql
+will return an error and terminate\&.
+.PP
+If both standard input and standard output are a terminal, then
+psql
+sets the client encoding to
+\(lqauto\(rq, which will detect the appropriate client encoding from the locale settings (\fBLC_CTYPE\fR
+environment variable on Unix systems)\&. If this doesn\*(Aqt work out as expected, the client encoding can be overridden using the environment variable
+\fBPGCLIENTENCODING\fR\&.
+.SS "Entering SQL Commands"
+.PP
+In normal operation,
+psql
+provides a prompt with the name of the database to which
+psql
+is currently connected, followed by the string
+=>\&. For example:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+$ \fBpsql testdb\fR
+psql (14\&.5)
+Type "help" for help\&.
+
+testdb=>
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+At the prompt, the user can type in
+SQL
+commands\&. Ordinarily, input lines are sent to the server when a command\-terminating semicolon is reached\&. An end of line does not terminate a command\&. Thus commands can be spread over several lines for clarity\&. If the command was sent and executed without error, the results of the command are displayed on the screen\&.
+.PP
+If untrusted users have access to a database that has not adopted a
+secure schema usage pattern, begin your session by removing publicly\-writable schemas from
+\fIsearch_path\fR\&. One can add
+options=\-csearch_path=
+to the connection string or issue
+SELECT pg_catalog\&.set_config(\*(Aqsearch_path\*(Aq, \*(Aq\*(Aq, false)
+before other SQL commands\&. This consideration is not specific to
+psql; it applies to every interface for executing arbitrary SQL commands\&.
+.PP
+Whenever a command is executed,
+psql
+also polls for asynchronous notification events generated by
+\fBLISTEN\fR
+and
+\fBNOTIFY\fR\&.
+.PP
+While C\-style block comments are passed to the server for processing and removal, SQL\-standard comments are removed by
+psql\&.
+.SS "Meta\-Commands"
+.PP
+Anything you enter in
+psql
+that begins with an unquoted backslash is a
+psql
+meta\-command that is processed by
+psql
+itself\&. These commands make
+psql
+more useful for administration or scripting\&. Meta\-commands are often called slash or backslash commands\&.
+.PP
+The format of a
+psql
+command is the backslash, followed immediately by a command verb, then any arguments\&. The arguments are separated from the command verb and each other by any number of whitespace characters\&.
+.PP
+To include whitespace in an argument you can quote it with single quotes\&. To include a single quote in an argument, write two single quotes within single\-quoted text\&. Anything contained in single quotes is furthermore subject to C\-like substitutions for
+\en
+(new line),
+\et
+(tab),
+\eb
+(backspace),
+\er
+(carriage return),
+\ef
+(form feed),
+\e\fIdigits\fR
+(octal), and
+\ex\fIdigits\fR
+(hexadecimal)\&. A backslash preceding any other character within single\-quoted text quotes that single character, whatever it is\&.
+.PP
+If an unquoted colon (:) followed by a
+psql
+variable name appears within an argument, it is replaced by the variable\*(Aqs value, as described in
+SQL Interpolation
+below\&. The forms
+:\*(Aq\fIvariable_name\fR\*(Aq
+and
+:"\fIvariable_name\fR"
+described there work as well\&. The
+:{?\fIvariable_name\fR}
+syntax allows testing whether a variable is defined\&. It is substituted by TRUE or FALSE\&. Escaping the colon with a backslash protects it from substitution\&.
+.PP
+Within an argument, text that is enclosed in backquotes (`) is taken as a command line that is passed to the shell\&. The output of the command (with any trailing newline removed) replaces the backquoted text\&. Within the text enclosed in backquotes, no special quoting or other processing occurs, except that appearances of
+:\fIvariable_name\fR
+where
+\fIvariable_name\fR
+is a
+psql
+variable name are replaced by the variable\*(Aqs value\&. Also, appearances of
+:\*(Aq\fIvariable_name\fR\*(Aq
+are replaced by the variable\*(Aqs value suitably quoted to become a single shell command argument\&. (The latter form is almost always preferable, unless you are very sure of what is in the variable\&.) Because carriage return and line feed characters cannot be safely quoted on all platforms, the
+:\*(Aq\fIvariable_name\fR\*(Aq
+form prints an error message and does not substitute the variable value when such characters appear in the value\&.
+.PP
+Some commands take an
+SQL
+identifier (such as a table name) as argument\&. These arguments follow the syntax rules of
+SQL: Unquoted letters are forced to lowercase, while double quotes (") protect letters from case conversion and allow incorporation of whitespace into the identifier\&. Within double quotes, paired double quotes reduce to a single double quote in the resulting name\&. For example,
+FOO"BAR"BAZ
+is interpreted as
+fooBARbaz, and
+"A weird"" name"
+becomes
+A weird" name\&.
+.PP
+Parsing for arguments stops at the end of the line, or when another unquoted backslash is found\&. An unquoted backslash is taken as the beginning of a new meta\-command\&. The special sequence
+\e\e
+(two backslashes) marks the end of arguments and continues parsing
+SQL
+commands, if any\&. That way
+SQL
+and
+psql
+commands can be freely mixed on a line\&. But in any case, the arguments of a meta\-command cannot continue beyond the end of the line\&.
+.PP
+Many of the meta\-commands act on the
+current query buffer\&. This is simply a buffer holding whatever SQL command text has been typed but not yet sent to the server for execution\&. This will include previous input lines as well as any text appearing before the meta\-command on the same line\&.
+.PP
+The following meta\-commands are defined:
+.PP
+\ea

+If the current table output format is unaligned, it is switched to aligned\&. If it is not unaligned, it is set to unaligned\&. This command is kept for backwards compatibility\&. See

+.RS 4
+Establishes a new connection to a
+PostgreSQL
+server\&. The connection parameters to use can be specified either using a positional syntax (one or more of database name, user, host, and port), or using a
+\fIconninfo\fR
+connection string as detailed in
+Section\ \&34.1.1\&. If no arguments are given, a new connection is made using the same parameters as before\&.
+.sp
+Specifying any of
+\fIdbname\fR,
+\fIusername\fR,
+\fIhost\fR
+or
+\fIport\fR
+as
+\-
+is equivalent to omitting that parameter\&.
+.sp
+The new connection can re\-use connection parameters from the previous connection; not only database name, user, host, and port, but other settings such as
+\fIsslmode\fR\&. By default, parameters are re\-used in the positional syntax, but not when a
+\fIconninfo\fR
+string is given\&. Passing a first argument of
+\-reuse\-previous=on
+or
+\-reuse\-previous=off
+overrides that default\&. If parameters are re\-used, then any parameter not explicitly specified as a positional parameter or in the
+\fIconninfo\fR
+string is taken from the existing connection\*(Aqs parameters\&. An exception is that if the
+\fIhost\fR
+setting is changed from its previous value using the positional syntax, any
+\fIhostaddr\fR
+setting present in the existing connection\*(Aqs parameters is dropped\&. Also, any password used for the existing connection will be re\-used only if the user, host, and port settings are not changed\&. When the command neither specifies nor reuses a particular parameter, the
+libpq
+default is used\&.
+.sp
+If the new connection is successfully made, the previous connection is closed\&. If the connection attempt fails (wrong user name, access denied, etc\&.), the previous connection will be kept if
+psql
+is in interactive mode\&. But when executing a non\-interactive script, the old connection is closed and an error is reported\&. That may or may not terminate the script; if it does not, all database\-accessing commands will fail until another
+\econnect
+command is successfully executed\&. This distinction was chosen as a user convenience against typos on the one hand, and a safety mechanism that scripts are not accidentally acting on the wrong database on the other hand\&. Note that whenever a
+\econnect
+command attempts to re\-use parameters, the values re\-used are those of the last successful connection, not of any failed attempts made subsequently\&. However, in the case of a non\-interactive
+\econnect
+failure, no parameters are allowed to be re\-used later, since the script would likely be expecting the values from the failed
+\econnect
+to be re\-used\&.

+on\&. Titles and footers are not printed\&. Each row is terminated by the system\-dependent end\-of\-line character, which is typically a single newline (\en) for Unix\-like systems or a carriage return and newline sequence (\er\en) for Microsoft Windows\&.

+\fB\epset csv_fieldsep\fR\&.
+.sp
+wrapped
+format is like
+aligned

+Backslash\-semicolon is not a meta\-command in the same way as the preceding commands; rather, it simply causes a semicolon to be added to the query buffer without any further processing\&.

+Normally,

+\fBPatterns\fR
+.RS 4
+.PP
+The various
+\ed
+commands accept a
+\fIpattern\fR
+parameter to specify the object name(s) to be displayed\&. In the simplest case, a pattern is just the exact name of the object\&. The characters within a pattern are normally folded to lower case, just as in SQL names; for example,
+\edt FOO
+will display the table named
+foo\&. As in SQL names, placing double quotes around a pattern stops folding to lower case\&. Should you need to include an actual double quote character in a pattern, write it as a pair of double quotes within a double\-quote sequence; again this is in accord with the rules for SQL quoted identifiers\&. For example,
+\edt "FOO""BAR"
+will display the table named
+FOO"BAR
+(not
+foo"bar)\&. Unlike the normal rules for SQL names, you can put double quotes around just part of a pattern, for instance
+\edt FOO"FOO"BAR
+will display the table named
+fooFOObar\&.
+.PP
+Whenever the
+\fIpattern\fR
+parameter is omitted completely, the
+\ed
+commands display all objects that are visible in the current schema search path \(em this is equivalent to using
+*
+as the pattern\&. (An object is said to be
+visible
+if its containing schema is in the search path and no object of the same kind and name appears earlier in the search path\&. This is equivalent to the statement that the object can be referenced by name without explicit schema qualification\&.) To see all objects in the database regardless of visibility, use
+*\&.*
+as the pattern\&.
+.PP
+Within a pattern,
+*
+matches any sequence of characters (including no characters) and
+?
+matches any single character\&. (This notation is comparable to Unix shell file name patterns\&.) For example,
+\edt int*
+displays tables whose names begin with
+int\&. But within double quotes,
+*
+and
+?
+lose these special meanings and are just matched literally\&.
+.PP
+A relation pattern that contains a dot (\&.) is interpreted as a schema name pattern followed by an object name pattern\&. For example,
+\edt foo*\&.*bar*
+displays all tables whose table name includes
+bar
+that are in schemas whose schema name starts with
+foo\&. When no dot appears, then the pattern matches only objects that are visible in the current schema search path\&. Again, a dot within double quotes loses its special meaning and is matched literally\&. A relation pattern that contains two dots (\&.) is interpreted as a database name followed by a schema name pattern followed by an object name pattern\&. The database name portion will not be treated as a pattern and must match the name of the currently connected database, else an error will be raised\&.
+.PP
+A schema pattern that contains a dot (\&.) is interpreted as a database name followed by a schema name pattern\&. For example,
+\edn mydb\&.*foo*
+displays all schemas whose schema name includes
+foo\&. The database name portion will not be treated as a pattern and must match the name of the currently connected database, else an error will be raised\&.
+.PP
+Advanced users can use regular\-expression notations such as character classes, for example
+[0\-9]
+to match any digit\&. All regular expression special characters work as specified in
+Section\ \&9.7.3, except for
+\&.
+which is taken as a separator as mentioned above,
+*
+which is translated to the regular\-expression notation
+\&.*,
+?
+which is translated to
+\&., and
+$

+?
+for
+\&.,
+(\fIR\fR+|)
+for
+\fIR\fR*, or
+(\fIR\fR|)
+for
+\fIR\fR?\&.
+$
+is not needed as a regular\-expression character since the pattern must match the whole name, unlike the usual interpretation of regular expressions (in other words,
+$
+is automatically appended to your pattern)\&. Write
+*
+at the beginning and/or end if you don\*(Aqt wish the pattern to be anchored\&. Note that within double quotes, all regular expression special characters lose their special meanings and are matched literally\&.

+\fBSQL Interpolation\fR
+.RS 4
+.PP
+A key feature of
+psql
+variables is that you can substitute (\(lqinterpolate\(rq) them into regular
+SQL
+statements, as well as the arguments of meta\-commands\&. Furthermore,
+psql
+provides facilities for ensuring that variable values used as SQL literals and identifiers are properly quoted\&. The syntax for interpolating a value without any quoting is to prepend the variable name with a colon (:)\&. For example,
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+testdb=> \fB\eset foo \*(Aqmy_table\*(Aq\fR
+testdb=> \fBSELECT * FROM :foo;\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+would query the table
+my_table\&. Note that this may be unsafe: the value of the variable is copied literally, so it can contain unbalanced quotes, or even backslash commands\&. You must make sure that it makes sense where you put it\&.
+.PP
+When a value is to be used as an SQL literal or identifier, it is safest to arrange for it to be quoted\&. To quote the value of a variable as an SQL literal, write a colon followed by the variable name in single quotes\&. To quote the value as an SQL identifier, write a colon followed by the variable name in double quotes\&. These constructs deal correctly with quotes and other special characters embedded within the variable value\&. The previous example would be more safely written this way:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+testdb=> \fB\eset foo \*(Aqmy_table\*(Aq\fR
+testdb=> \fBSELECT * FROM :"foo";\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.PP
+Variable interpolation will not be performed within quoted
+SQL
+literals and identifiers\&. Therefore, a construction such as
+\*(Aq:foo\*(Aq
+doesn\*(Aqt work to produce a quoted literal from a variable\*(Aqs value (and it would be unsafe if it did work, since it wouldn\*(Aqt correctly handle quotes embedded in the value)\&.
+.PP
+One example use of this mechanism is to copy the contents of a file into a table column\&. First load the file into a variable and then interpolate the variable\*(Aqs value as a quoted string:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+testdb=> \fB\eset content `cat my_file\&.txt`\fR
+testdb=> \fBINSERT INTO my_table VALUES (:\*(Aqcontent\*(Aq);\fR
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+(Note that this still won\*(Aqt work if
+my_file\&.txt
+contains NUL bytes\&.
+psql
+does not support embedded NUL bytes in variable values\&.)
+.PP
+Since colons can legally appear in SQL commands, an apparent attempt at interpolation (that is,
+:name,
+:\*(Aqname\*(Aq, or
+:"name") is not replaced unless the named variable is currently set\&. In any case, you can escape a colon with a backslash to protect it from substitution\&.
+.PP
+The
+:{?\fIname\fR}
+special syntax returns TRUE or FALSE depending on whether the variable exists or not, and is thus always substituted, unless the colon is backslash\-escaped\&.
+.PP

+\fIPROMPT1\fR,

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+reindexdb
+is a utility for rebuilding indexes in a
+PostgreSQL
+database\&.
+.PP
+reindexdb
+is a wrapper around the SQL command
+\fBREINDEX\fR\&. There is no effective difference between reindexing databases via this utility and via other methods for accessing the server\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+reindexdb
+accepts the following command\-line arguments:
+.PP
+\fB\-a\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-all\fR
+.RS 4
+Reindex all databases\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-\-concurrently\fR
+.RS 4
+Use the
+CONCURRENTLY
+option\&. See
+\fBREINDEX\fR(7), where all the caveats of this option are explained in detail\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB[\-d]\fR\fB \fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB[\-\-dbname=]\fR\fB\fIdbname\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Specifies the name of the database to be reindexed, when
+\fB\-a\fR/\fB\-\-all\fR
+is not used\&. If this is not specified, the database name is read from the environment variable
+\fBPGDATABASE\fR\&. If that is not set, the user name specified for the connection is used\&. The
+\fIdbname\fR
+can be a
+connection string\&. If so, connection string parameters will override any conflicting command line options\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-e\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-echo\fR
+.RS 4
+Echo the commands that
+reindexdb
+generates and sends to the server\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-i \fR\fB\fIindex\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-index=\fR\fB\fIindex\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Recreate

+\fB\-i\fR
+switches\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-j \fR\fB\fInjobs\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-jobs=\fR\fB\fInjobs\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Execute the reindex commands in parallel by running
+\fInjobs\fR
+commands simultaneously\&. This option may reduce the processing time but it also increases the load on the database server\&.
+.sp
+reindexdb
+will open
+\fInjobs\fR
+connections to the database, so make sure your
+max_connections
+setting is high enough to accommodate all connections\&.
+.sp
+Note that this option is incompatible with the
+\fB\-\-index\fR
+and
+\fB\-\-system\fR
+options\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-q\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-quiet\fR
+.RS 4

+.SH "NAME"
+vacuumlo \- remove orphaned large objects from a PostgreSQL database
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.HP \w'\fBvacuumlo\fR\ 'u
+\fBvacuumlo\fR [\fIoption\fR...] \fIdbname\fR...
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+vacuumlo
+is a simple utility program that will remove any
+\(lqorphaned\(rq
+large objects from a
+PostgreSQL
+database\&. An orphaned large object (LO) is considered to be any LO whose OID does not appear in any
+oid
+or
+lo
+data column of the database\&.
+.PP
+If you use this, you may also be interested in the
+\fBlo_manage\fR
+trigger in the
+lo
+module\&.
+\fBlo_manage\fR
+is useful to try to avoid creating orphaned LOs in the first place\&.
+.PP
+All databases named on the command line are processed\&.
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.PP
+vacuumlo
+accepts the following command\-line arguments:
+.PP
+\fB\-l \fR\fB\fIlimit\fR\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-limit=\fR\fB\fIlimit\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+Remove no more than
+\fIlimit\fR
+large objects per transaction (default 1000)\&. Since the server acquires a lock per LO removed, removing too many LOs in one transaction risks exceeding
+max_locks_per_transaction\&. Set the limit to zero if you want all removals done in a single transaction\&.

+\fB\-\-help\fR

+.PP
+vacuumlo
+also accepts the following command\-line arguments for connection parameters:
+.PP
+\fB\-h \fR\fB\fIhost\fR\fR

+\fB\-\-username=\fR\fB\fIusername\fR\fR
+.RS 4
+User name to connect as\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-w\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-no\-password\fR
+.RS 4
+Never issue a password prompt\&. If the server requires password authentication and a password is not available by other means such as a
+\&.pgpass
+file, the connection attempt will fail\&. This option can be useful in batch jobs and scripts where no user is present to enter a password\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fB\-W\fR
+.br
+\fB\-\-password\fR
+.RS 4
+Force
+vacuumlo
+to prompt for a password before connecting to a database\&.
+.sp
+This option is never essential, since
+vacuumlo
+will automatically prompt for a password if the server demands password authentication\&. However,
+vacuumlo
+will waste a connection attempt finding out that the server wants a password\&. In some cases it is worth typing
+\fB\-W\fR
+to avoid the extra connection attempt\&.

+Default connection parameters\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+This utility, like most other
+PostgreSQL
+utilities, also uses the environment variables supported by
+libpq
+(see
+Section\ \&34.15)\&.
+.PP
+The environment variable
+\fBPG_COLOR\fR
+specifies whether to use color in diagnostic messages\&. Possible values are
+always,
+auto
+and
+never\&.
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+vacuumlo
+works by the following method: First,
+vacuumlo
+builds a temporary table which contains all of the OIDs of the large objects in the selected database\&. It then scans through all columns in the database that are of type
+oid
+or
+lo, and removes matching entries from the temporary table\&. (Note: Only types with these names are considered; in particular, domains over them are not considered\&.) The remaining entries in the temporary table identify orphaned LOs\&. These are removed\&.
