COMMENT ON LIBRARY

Adds, revises, or removes a comment on a library . Each object can have one comment. Comments are stored in the system table COMMENTS.

Syntax

COMMENT ON LIBRARY [[database.]schema.]library IS {'comment' | NULL}

`[database.]schema`	Specifies a schema, by default `public`. If schema is any schema other than `public`, you must supply the schema name. For example: myschema.thisDbObject If you specify a database, it must be the current database.
`library`	The name of the library associated with the comment.
`comment`	Specifies the comment text to add. If a comment already exists for this library, this comment overwrites the previous one. Comments can be up to 8192 characters in length. If a comment exceeds that limitation, Vertica truncates the comment and alerts the user with a message. Enclose a blank value within single quotes to remove an existing comment.
`NULL`	Removes an existing comment.
