The REINDEX (VERBOSE) DATABASE xxx; works. However, the syntax is not intuitive, from my point of view. And TAB completion does not show you the (VERBOSE) option either. e.g. if you press two times TAB, it does not show you the VERBOSE option (postgres@[local]:55000)[knowledgebase]> REINDEX [TAB] [TAB] DATABASE INDEX SCHEMA SYSTEM TABLE Would it not be possible to allow 2 options. One with (VERBOSE) for backward compatibility and one with VERBOSE Von: David G. Johnston [mailto:david.g.johnston@gmail.com] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 3.

Johnston' <david.g.johnston@gmail.com>; +Cc: pgsql-admin Hello David Yes, I did read the thread. However, I still don’t see the advantage of running: REINDEX ( VERBOSE ) DATABASE xxx; Instead of: REINDEX VERBOSE DATABASE xxx; And coming back to the TAB completion thing, which is a fantastic feature, by the way, does not show you the option which comes in parentheses. I don’t know if this is by design or not. >REINDEX [TAB] [TAB] DATABASE INDEX SCHEMA SYSTEM TABLE I would expect with the current syntax implementation: >REINDEX [TAB] [TAB] (VERBOSE) DATABASE INDEX SCHEMA SYSTEM TABLE Nevertheless, thanks everyone. I think I will switch to the command line tool reindexdb. ;-) This one is more intuitive from my point of view: reindexdb --verbose --dbname=xxx Cheers, William Von: David G.

One with (VERBOSE) for backward compatibility and one with VERBOSE Its possible but such a patch would never be committed (did you read the email thread?). Intuitiveness isn’t a huge concern here. Especially for a command that isn’t intended to be run manually often. The learning curve for PostgreSQL includes knowing where to find command syntax and how to read it. Its a complex language that is constantly being added to.
