It's not the issue. The original question was how to change the upper
limit of the sequence's range, not its current value.
junk=# create sequence foo_seq maxvalue 3000;
CREATE SEQUENCE
junk=# select nextval('foo_seq');
nextval
---------
1
(1 row)
junk=# select setval('foo_seq', 999999);
ERROR: foo_seq.setval: value 999999 is out of bounds (1,3000)
