    The ALTER AGGREGATE command changes the definition of an aggregate function in a database. It allows renaming an aggregate function, changing its owner, and setting a new schema. The owner of the aggregate function must issue the command and have certain privileges to alter the owner or schema. ALTER AGGREGATE changes metadata but not the implementation of the aggregate function itself.

    alter_aggregate(7) ­ Linux man page
    Name
    ALTER AGGREGATE ­ change the definition of an aggregate function

    Synopsis
    ALTER AGGREGATE name ( type [ , ... ] ) RENAME TO new_name
    ALTER AGGREGATE name ( type [ , ... ] ) OWNER TO new_owner
    ALTER AGGREGATE name ( type [ , ... ] ) SET SCHEMA new_schema

    Description
    ALTER AGGREGATE changes the definition of an aggregate function.

    You must own the aggregate function to use ALTER AGGREGATE. To change the
    schema of an aggregate function, 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 aggregate function's
    schema. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner doesn't do anything you
    couldn't do by dropping and recreating the aggregate function. However, a superuser
    can alter ownership of any aggregate function anyway.)

    Parameters
    name

    The name (optionally schema­qualified) of an existing aggregate function.

    type

    An input data type on which the aggregate function operates. To reference a zero­
    argument aggregate function, write * in place of the list of input data types.

    new_name
    The new name of the aggregate function.
    new_owner
    The new owner of the aggregate function.
    new_schema
    The new schema for the aggregate function.

    Examples
    To rename the aggregate function myavg for type integer to my_average:

    ALTER AGGREGATE myavg(integer) RENAME TO my_average;

    To change the owner of the aggregate function myavg for type integer to joe:

    https://linux.die.net/man/7/alter_aggregate 1/2
    29/1/2019 alter_aggregate(7) - Linux man page

    ALTER AGGREGATE myavg(integer) OWNER TO joe;

    To move the aggregate function myavg for type integer into schema myschema:

    ALTER AGGREGATE myavg(integer) SET SCHEMA myschema;

    Compatibility
    There is no ALTER AGGREGATE statement in the SQL standard.
