Question

How can I get the values for the Vertica parameters

• example :
  In oracle I can do this :
  sql:>show parameter <parameter_name>

How can I do this in vertica? And how to alter them?

Answer 1

SELECT * FROM CONFIGURATION_PARAMETERS;

You used to be able to do the following: select get_config_parameter('ParameterName');

I'm not sure if that is still available. There should also be a set_config_parameter function.
