           SET TABLESPACE new_tablespace

DESCRIPTION
       ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW changes various auxiliary properties of an
       existing materialized view.

       You must own the materialized view to use ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW. To
       change a materialized view's schema, you must also have CREATE
       privilege on the new schema. To alter the owner, you must also be a
       direct or indirect member of the new owning role, and that role must
       have CREATE privilege on the materialized view's schema. (These
       restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything you
       couldn't do by dropping and recreating the materialized view. However,
       a superuser can alter ownership of any view anyway.)

       The statement subforms and actions available for ALTER MATERIALIZED
       VIEW are a subset of those available for ALTER TABLE, and have the same
       meaning when used for materialized views. See the descriptions for
       ALTER TABLE (ALTER_TABLE(7)) for details.

PARAMETERS
       name
           The name (optionally schema-qualified) of an existing materialized
           view.

       column_name
           Name of a new or existing column.

       new_column_name
           New name for an existing column.

       new_owner
           The user name of the new owner of the materialized view.

       new_name
           The new name for the materialized view.

       new_schema
           The new schema for the materialized view.

EXAMPLES
       To rename the materialized view foo to bar:

           ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW foo RENAME TO bar;

COMPATIBILITY
       ALTER MATERIALIZED VIEW is a PostgreSQL extension.
