Object Administration Utility Default Values


The Object Administration Default Values screen (Object Administration Default Values screen) displays when you select option 5 from the User Parms menu. It lets you specify the default table space and database and is also used to set default values for table space and index creation.

Important

Certain Object Administration functions, e.g. binding packages, require support tables, e.g. DBIDOBJS. Object Administration will create the tables when needed, using the default values specified here. For this purpose, provide values for the DATABASE Name, TABLESPACE Name, index STOGROUP and BUFFERPOOL fields. Also, you must have proper authority to create these objects.
