[HACKERS] default_tablespace
Hi Hackers, After reviewing docs and searching web cannot find out how to determine the default tablespace of a user? Like: select spcname from blab where roloid = ; Is this possible?

A user can set the variable default_tablespace in their session to over-ride the database default, but that wouldn't be stored anywhere in the database (it's a client variable). you can find the OID for the default tablespace for a specific database in pg_database. more info: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/runtime-config-client.html#GUC-DEFAULT-TABLESPACE Dave -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

You can, however, do ALTER USER user SET default_tablespace=whatever, which will cause default_tablespace to be set automatically upon login for that user. I don't know of the top of my head how we store that in the system catalogs, though. You'll have to check the documentation to find that out... best regards, Florian Pflug -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

oh, you're right. my mistake.
and it looks like it's stored in useconfig in pg_user.
select * from pg_user where usename = 'david.kerr';
usename | usesysid | usecreatedb | usesuper | usecatupd | passwd |
valuntil | useconfig
+--+-+--+---+--+--+---
david.kerr |16482 | f | t| t | |
| {default_tablespace=test}
