CREATE TABLESPACE(7)	 PostgreSQL 10.1 Documentation	  CREATE TABLESPACE(7)

NAME
       CREATE_TABLESPACE - define a new tablespace

SYNOPSIS
       CREATE TABLESPACE tablespace_name
	   [ OWNER { new_owner | CURRENT_USER | SESSION_USER } ]
	   LOCATION 'directory'
	   [ WITH ( tablespace_option = value [, ... ] ) ]

DESCRIPTION
       CREATE TABLESPACE registers a new cluster-wide tablespace. The
       tablespace name must be distinct from the name of any existing
       tablespace in the database cluster.

       A tablespace allows superusers to define an alternative location on the
       file system where the data files containing database objects (such as
       tables and indexes) can reside.

       A user with appropriate privileges can pass tablespace_name to CREATE
       DATABASE, CREATE TABLE, CREATE INDEX or ADD CONSTRAINT to have the data
       files for these objects stored within the specified tablespace.

	   Warning
	   A tablespace cannot be used independently of the cluster in which
	   it is defined; see Section 22.6.

PARAMETERS
       tablespace_name
	   The name of a tablespace to be created. The name cannot begin with
	   pg_, as such names are reserved for system tablespaces.

       user_name
	   The name of the user who will own the tablespace. If omitted,
	   defaults to the user executing the command. Only superusers can
	   create tablespaces, but they can assign ownership of tablespaces to
	   non-superusers.

       directory
	   The directory that will be used for the tablespace. The directory
	   should be empty and must be owned by the PostgreSQL system user.
	   The directory must be specified by an absolute path name.

       tablespace_option
	   A tablespace parameter to be set or reset. Currently, the only
	   available parameters are seq_page_cost, random_page_cost and
	   effective_io_concurrency. Setting either value for a particular
	   tablespace will override the planner's usual estimate of the cost
	   of reading pages from tables in that tablespace, as established by
	   the configuration parameters of the same name (see seq_page_cost,
	   random_page_cost, effective_io_concurrency). 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.

NOTES
       Tablespaces are only supported on systems that support symbolic links.

       CREATE TABLESPACE cannot be executed inside a transaction block.

EXAMPLES
       Create a tablespace dbspace at /data/dbs:

	   CREATE TABLESPACE dbspace LOCATION '/data/dbs';

       Create a tablespace indexspace at /data/indexes owned by user
       genevieve:

	   CREATE TABLESPACE indexspace OWNER genevieve LOCATION '/data/indexes';

COMPATIBILITY
       CREATE TABLESPACE is a PostgreSQL extension.
