DESCRIPTION

           Note

           The following description applies both to Postgres-XC and PostgreSQL if not described explicitly.

       ALTER USER is now an alias for ALTER ROLE (ALTER_ROLE(7)).

COMPATIBILITY

       The ALTER USER statement is a Postgres-XC extension. The SQL standard leaves the definition of users to
       the implementation.
