NAME

       RESET - restore the value of a run-time parameter to the default value

SYNOPSIS

       RESET configuration_parameter
       RESET ALL

DESCRIPTION

       RESET restores run-time parameters to their default values. RESET is an
       alternative spelling for

       SET configuration_parameter TO DEFAULT

       Refer to SET [set(7)] for details.

       The default value is defined as the value that the parameter would have
       had,  if no SET had ever been issued for it in the current session. The
       actual source of  this  value  might  be  a  compiled-in  default,  the
       configuration  file,  command-line options, or per-database or per-user
       default settings. This is subtly different from defining  it  as  ‘‘the
       value  that  the parameter had at session start’’, because if the value
       came from the configuration file, it  will  be  reset  to  whatever  is
       specified  by the configuration file now.  See in the documentation for
       details.

       The transactional behavior of RESET is the same  as  SET:  its  effects
       will be undone by transaction rollback.

PARAMETERS

       configuration_parameter
              Name  of a settable run-time parameter. Available parameters are

              reference page.

       ALL    Resets all settable run-time parameters to default values.
