[ADMIN] The same role for multiple databases

Hi!

Is it possible to grant some priviliges for a role to multiple databases?

Just to illustrate:
grant all priviliges on database1 to role a. 
grant all priviliges on database2 to role a.


Thanks!

Poul

Yes, (or is that too glib?)

Roles are global in postgresql, so it's just a simple grant assignment.

Thanks for fast responce.

Could this iteraction roles, schemas, databases  - e.g. configurations in pg_hba.conf -  between multiple databases and different Postgres minor version e.g. 9.6 to 9.6.1 cause trouble when upgrading still between minor versions? 
An if any potential problems would this be announced in release comments.

Thanks.

Provided you're just performing a simple pg_upgrade without making schema changes or any wholesale database changes,  then, even if the upgrade is a major version change, you really shouldn't have any issues. At least I've never had any problems with this.

hello Poul,

    Why not just create a super user ??
    User is also a role with login privilege.
    You can also grant "your superuser " to "other user" .
    It's more convenient.

Br,
Steven
