>> I'm looking to move a database by using ALTER DATABASE $DB SET TABLESPACE and i'd also like to move a schema over to the same new tablespace, googling around, it looks like there was a an ALTER SCHEMA $SCHEMA SET TABLESPACE command in the past, but apparently no longer. I'm using Postgres 9, can anyone confirm if this is still possible, and if not, how I can move the schema over ?
