To determine the set of existing tablespaces, examine the
- <structname>pg_tablespace</> system catalog, for example
+ <link linkend="catalog-pg-tablespace"><structname>pg_tablespace</structname>
+ </link> system catalog, for example
<synopsis>
SELECT spcname FROM pg_tablespace;
</synopsis>
The directory <filename>$PGDATA/pg_tblspc</> contains symbolic links that
point to each of the non-built-in tablespaces defined in the cluster.
Although not recommended, it is possible to adjust the tablespace
- layout by hand by redefining these links. Two warnings: do not do so
- while the server is running; and after you restart the server,
- update the <structname>pg_tablespace</> catalog with the new
- locations. (If you do not, <literal>pg_dump</> will continue to output
- the old tablespace locations.)
