I did "alter role" as same the syntax you sent.  I thought there's a profile setting like Oracle, pw_limit, password_life_time, password_reuse_time, etc... and on mysql we can set on my.cnf.  Seem like postgres doesn't have this function.
thank you.

 First of all, it would be good to check the PG DOCs to get easy answers like this. Steps:
1. google it: Postgresql alter role
2. Choose the one that points to the official pg docs. https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/sql-alterrole.html
3. Change the version at top of the page to your PG version.

Now on this page it explicitly shows you the syntax for changing password expiration: VALID UNTIL 'timestamp'
Then the same page gives 2 working examples:


Change a password expiration date, specifying that the password should expire at midday on 4th May 2015 using the time zone which is one hour ahead of  UTC :
ALTER ROLE chris VALID UNTIL 'May 4 12:00:00 2015 +1';

Make a password valid forever:
ALTER ROLE fred VALID UNTIL 'infinity';
Please do a little research before submitting questions.  We love to answer questions but it would be nice if you could do a little effort on your own in advance first.

Regards,
Michael Vitale

I want to know too.
I couldn't find the profile setting in Postgres as Oracle and all I do is "ALTER ROLE '${USER}' WITH PASSWORD '${password}' VALID UNTIL '${expiration_timestamp}';
thank you.

 Hey,
I would like to know, do we have profile concept in PostgreSQL as like in Oracle.I have a requirement to expire user password in 90 days and in oracle, I can achieve this by creating profile with custom requirements and assign it to the users.  Similarly in PostgreSQL do we have options to restrict the users on password complexity.
