<para>
This command outputs details about the supplied query.
The default output is the computed query cost.
The cost value is only meaningful to the optimizer in comparing
various query plans.
VERBOSE displays the full query plan and cost to your screen,
and pretty-prints the plan to the postmaster log file.

FETCH allows a user to retrieve rows using a cursor.
The number of rows retrieved is specified by
<REPLACEABLE CLASS="PARAMETER">#</REPLACEABLE>.
<replaceable class="PARAMETER">#</replaceable>.
If the number of rows remaining in the cursor is less
than <REPLACEABLE CLASS="PARAMETER">#</REPLACEABLE>,
than <replaceable class="PARAMETER">#</replaceable>,
then only those available are fetched.
Substituting the keyword ALL in place of a number will
cause all remaining rows in the cursor to be retrieved.
Instances may be fetched in both FORWARD and BACKWARD
directions. The default direction is FORWARD.

Negative numbers are now allowed to be specified for the

is a utility for upgrading from a previous
PostgreSQL release without reloading all the data. First,
to be safe, back up your data directory. Then, use:
<programlisting>
% pg_dumpall -s >db.out
</programlisting>
to dump out your old database definitions without any
data. Stop the postmaster and all backends.

PostgreSQL release without reloading all the data.

Then rename (using mv) your old pgsql /data directory to
/data.old and do a make install to install the new binaries.
Run initdb to create a new template1 database containing the system
tables for the new release. Start the new postmaster, cd to the
pgsql main directory, and type:
