NAME
clusterdb - cluster a PostgreSQL database
SYNOPSIS
clusterdb [ connection-option... ] [ --table | -t table ]
[ dbname ]
clusterdb [ connection-option... ] [ [ --all ] [ -a ] ]
DESCRIPTION
clusterdb is a utility for reclustering tables in a Post-
greSQL database. It finds tables that have previously been
clustered, and clusters them again on the same index that
was last used. Tables that have never been clustered are not
affected.
clusterdb is a wrapper around the SQL command CLUSTER [clus-
ter(5)]. There is no effective difference between cluster-
ing databases via this utility and via other methods for
accessing the server.
OPTIONS
clusterdb accepts the following command-line arguments:
-a
--all
Cluster all databases.
[-d] dbname
[--dbname] dbname
Specifies the name of the database to be clustered. If
this is not specified and -a (or --all) is not used,
the database name is read from the environment variable
PGDATABASE. If that is not set, the user name specified
for the connection is used.
-e
--echo
Echo the commands that clusterdb generates and sends to
the server.
-q
--quiet
Do not display a response.
-t table

--table table
Cluster table only.
clusterdb also accepts the following command-line arguments
for connection parameters:
-h host
--host host
Specifies the host name of the machine on which the
server is running. If the value begins with a slash, it
is used as the directory for the Unix domain socket.
-p port
--port port
Specifies the TCP port or local Unix domain socket file
extension on which the server is listening for connec-
tions.
-U username
--username username
User name to connect as.
-W
--password
Force password prompt.
ENVIRONMENT
PGDATABASE
PGHOST
PGPORT
PGUSER
Default connection parameters
DIAGNOSTICS
In case of difficulty, see CLUSTER [cluster(5)] and psql(1)
for discussions of potential problems and error messages.
The database server must be running at the targeted host.
Also, any default connection settings and environment vari-
ables used by the libpq front-end library will apply.
EXAMPLES
To cluster the database test:
$ clusterdb test
