ALTER TABLESPACE <em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em> RENAME TO <em class="replaceable"><code>new_name</code></em>

</pre></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.36.5"><h2>Description</h2><p>
<code class="command">ALTER TABLESPACE</code> can be used to change the definition of
a tablespace.
</p><p>
You must own the tablespace to change the definition of a tablespace.
To alter the owner, you must also be able to <code class="literal">SET ROLE</code>
to the new owning role.
(Note that superusers have these privileges automatically.)
</p></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.36.6"><h2>Parameters</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl class="variablelist"><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The name of an existing tablespace.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>new_name</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The new name of the tablespace. The new name cannot
begin with <code class="literal">pg_</code>, as such names
are reserved for system tablespaces.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>new_owner</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
The new owner of the tablespace.
</p></dd><dt><span class="term"><em class="replaceable"><code>tablespace_option</code></em></span></dt><dd><p>
A tablespace parameter to be set or reset. Currently, the only
available parameters are <code class="varname">seq_page_cost</code>,
<code class="varname">random_page_cost</code>, <code class="varname">effective_io_concurrency</code>
and <code class="varname">maintenance_io_concurrency</code>.
Setting these values for a particular tablespace will override the
planner's usual estimate of the cost of reading pages from tables in
that tablespace, and the executor's prefetching behavior, as established
by the configuration parameters of the
same name (see <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-query.html#GUC-SEQ-PAGE-COST">seq_page_cost</a>,
<a class="xref" href="runtime-config-query.html#GUC-RANDOM-PAGE-COST">random_page_cost</a>,
<a class="xref" href="runtime-config-resource.html#GUC-EFFECTIVE-IO-CONCURRENCY">effective_io_concurrency</a>,
<a class="xref" href="runtime-config-resource.html#GUC-MAINTENANCE-IO-CONCURRENCY">maintenance_io_concurrency</a>). This may be useful if
one tablespace is located on a disk which is faster or slower than the
remainder of the I/O subsystem.
</p></dd></dl></div></div><div class="refsect1" id="id-1.9.3.36.7"><h2>Examples</h2><p>
Rename tablespace <code class="literal">index_space</code> to <code class="literal">fast_raid</code>:

ALTER TABLESPACE index_space RENAME TO fast_raid;

There is no <code class="command">ALTER TABLESPACE</code> statement in
the SQL standard.
