DROP SERVER

Description

Drops an existing data server.

Precautions

Only the server owner or a user granted with the DROP permission can run the DROP SERVER command. A system administrator has this permission by default.

Syntax

DROP SERVER [ IF EXISTS ] server_name [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ] ;

Parameters

IF EXISTS

Reports a notice instead of an error if the specified data server does not exist.
server_name

Specifies the name of the data server to be dropped.
CASCADE | RESTRICT
- CASCADE: automatically deletes the objects that depend on the data server.
- RESTRICT: refuses to delete the server if any objects depend on it. This is the default action.

Examples

-- Create a server.
gaussdb=# CREATE SERVER my_server FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER log_fdw;
CREATE SERVER

-- Drop my_server.
gaussdb=# DROP SERVER my_server;
