The following sentence in the ALTER TABLE documentation is not entirely
accurate:
"All the actions except RENAME, SET TABLESPACE and SET SCHEMA can be
combined into a list of multiple alterations to apply in parallel."
SET TABLESPACE (in the ALTER TABLE form) can be combined with other
sub-commands; following works:
alter table foo set tablespace mytbls, add b int;
Perhaps, it should say something like:
All the actions except RENAME, SET TABLESPACE (when using the ALL IN
TABLESPACE form) and SET SCHEMA can be combined into a list of multiple
alterations to apply in parallel.
Attached is a patch.
Thanks,
