Group Options window

When you change options settings, some of the settings take effect immediately, while for others to take effect you must restart the database.

This window applies to version 12.0.1 and earlier databases and has the following components:

Group Displays the name of the selected group.
Show Provides a list of option types. For example, if you choose Database Options, only database-related options appear in the Options list.
Options list Shows the option settings and their default values based on the type of options selected in the Show list.
Value Choose an option in the Options list, and then type or select the setting in the Value field. You can make the setting permanent by clicking Set Permanent Now. An option value cannot be set for a group unless there is already a PUBLIC role setting for that option.

Once you select an option, you can use the buttons at the side of the window.

New This button is not enabled when you are setting group options. You must open the Database Options window to add new options to the Options list. For instructions about how to open the Database Options window, see How to set database options using the SET OPTION statement.
Remove Now This button is not enabled when you are setting group options. You must open the Database Options window to remove options from the Options list. For instructions about how to open the Database Options window, see How to set database options using the SET OPTION statement.
Set Permanent Now To change an option setting for a group permanently, select an option from the Options list, type the setting in the Value field, then click Set Permanent Now.
