Thread: Check table storage parameters

Check table storage parameters

From
Lee Hachadoorian
Date:
How can I read the current storage parameters for an existing table?
Specifically interested in autovacuum_enabled.

Sorry to ask such basic question, but I can't find this in the docs,
and every search I've tried ends up taking me to how to *set* the
parameter with CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE.

Thanks,
--Lee

That was it.

Interestingly, if the table uses the server default, reloptions is NULL.

Best,
