The only admin aspect to this question is the fact you are using a very
out-of-date release of PostgreSQL. As for your question it seems like
something you can easily resolve on your own since you supposedly have data
and a way to run queries. If your run the above query against your data do
you get the results you expect?
I do question whether having a constant in the select-list is something you
really want but since you provide no context and no data...
David J.
P.s. Decided to read more closely...you seem to want to add a new role to
all existing users with a given role. Whether this makes sense depends on
the data. Regardless, your corporate query does not do what you want.
