|
|
<para>
|
|
<application>reindexdb</application> is a utility for rebuilding indexes
|
|
in a <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> database.
|

</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
<application>reindexdb</application> is a wrapper around the SQL

command <xref linkend="SQL-REINDEX" endterm="sql-reindex-title">.
|
|
There is no effective difference between reindexing databases via
|
|
this utility and via other methods for accessing the server.
