When users hit limits due to system vars, such as
max_tables
, add a hint for how to get unblocked.E.g.
For limits controlled by Materialize (not configurable by the organization admin, only configurable via LaunchDarkly):
Hint should tell user: to change the limit, contact support.
For limits controlled by the org (thus configurable by an admin):
Hint should tell user: to set the system variable to another value, contact an organization admin to run
ALTER SYSTEM SET
.In both cases, we should consider linking to the docs https://materialize.com/docs/sql/alter-system-set/#system-variables. That docs link has the list of limits and which ones are controlled by an admin vs Materialize.
For local development, this will be misleading b/c the user can run
ALTER SYTEM SET
on all system vars.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
