Important

New database features are no longer connected to engine versions; features are now enabled independently during scheduled update windows, and “major” and “minor” releases no longer exist in Helios. Please visit the release notes to view the latest features available in your database clusters.

DROP RESOURCE POOL

Syntax

SQL

DROP RESOURCE POOL pool_name

Remarks

pool_name: The name of a resource pool.
DROP POOL privileges are required for dropping a resource pool.
Refer to the Permissions Matrix for the required permissions.

Warning

Open connections to a database are assigned to a specific resource pool (or default_pool if no other pool is selected). Before dropping a resource pool, you should set resource_pool to another value; otherwise only DDL commands can be run from those connections until a new resource_pool value has been set.

You cannot drop the built-in resource pools. You also cannot drop a pool that is the default startup pool for a user.

Example

This example assumes that the resource pool test_pool exists and that you want to drop it.

Before dropping test_pool, set the current resource pool to a value other than test_pool:

SQL

SET resource_pool = default_pool;

Then drop the test_pool:

SQL

DROP RESOURCE POOL test_pool;
