+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBCREATE SERVER\fR
+defines a new foreign server\&. The user who defines the server becomes its owner\&.
+.PP
+A foreign server typically encapsulates connection information that a foreign\-data wrapper uses to access an external data resource\&. Additional user\-specific connection information may be specified by means of user mappings\&.
+.PP
+The server name must be unique within the database\&.
+.PP
+Creating a server requires
+USAGE
+privilege on the foreign\-data wrapper being used\&.
+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.PP
+IF NOT EXISTS
+.RS 4
+Do not throw an error if a server with the same name already exists\&. A notice is issued in this case\&. Note that there is no guarantee that the existing server is anything like the one that would have been created\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fIserver_name\fR
+.RS 4
+The name of the foreign server to be created\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fIserver_type\fR
+.RS 4
+Optional server type, potentially useful to foreign\-data wrappers\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fIserver_version\fR
+.RS 4
+Optional server version, potentially useful to foreign\-data wrappers\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+\fIfdw_name\fR
+.RS 4
+The name of the foreign\-data wrapper that manages the server\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+OPTIONS ( \fIoption\fR \*(Aq\fIvalue\fR\*(Aq [, \&.\&.\&. ] )
+.RS 4
+This clause specifies the options for the server\&. The options typically define the connection details of the server, but the actual names and values are dependent on the server\*(Aqs foreign\-data wrapper\&.
+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+When using the
+dblink
+module, a foreign server\*(Aqs name can be used as an argument of the
+\fBdblink_connect\fR(3)
+function to indicate the connection parameters\&. It is necessary to have the
+USAGE
+privilege on the foreign server to be able to use it in this way\&.
+.PP
+If the foreign server supports sort pushdown, it is necessary for it to have the same sort ordering as the local server\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+Create a server
+myserver
+that uses the foreign\-data wrapper
+postgres_fdw:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+CREATE SERVER myserver FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER postgres_fdw OPTIONS (host \*(Aqfoo\*(Aq, dbname \*(Aqfoodb\*(Aq, port \*(Aq5432\*(Aq);
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.sp
+See
+postgres_fdw
+for more details\&.
+.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
+.PP
+\fBCREATE SERVER\fR
+conforms to ISO/IEC 9075\-9 (SQL/MED)\&.
