Hi !
I'm looking for a way to change the "max_connections" parameter without
restarting the PostGreSQL database.
All the docs i found online are saying that this option can only be set
on startup (-N option to comand-line) or by changing it in postgresql.conf.
Does anyone know how to do it ?
Thanks

There is none. That's one of the parameters that determines shared
memory array sizes, and we can't change those on-the-fly.
