<title>Description</title>
<para>
<command>ALTER SERVER</command> changes the definition of a foreign
server. The first form changes the server version string or the
generic options of the server (at least one clause is required).
The second form changes the owner of the server.

To alter the server you must be the owner of the server.
Additionally to alter the owner, you must own the server and also
be a direct or indirect member of the new owning role, and you must
have <literal>USAGE</literal> privilege on the server's foreign-data
wrapper. (Note that superusers satisfy all these criteria
automatically.)
