DROP SERVER
DROP SERVER [ IF EXISTS ] name [, ...] [ CASCADE | RESTRICT ]
Description
DROP SERVER removes an existing foreign server descriptor.
To execute this command, the current user must be the owner of the server.
Parameters
- `IF EXISTS`
Do not throw an error if the server does not exist. A notice is issued in this case.
- *name*
The name of an existing server.
- `CASCADE`
Automatically drop objects that depend on the server (such as user mappings), and in turn all objects that depend on those objects (see Dependency Tracking).
- `RESTRICT`
Refuse to drop the server if any objects depend on it. This is the default.
Examples
Drop a server foo if it exists:
DROP SERVER IF EXISTS foo;
Compatibility
DROP SERVER conforms to ISO/IEC 9075-9 (SQL/MED).
The IF EXISTS clause is a PostgreSQL extension.
