Storage characteristics
The storage characteristics tell the database server how to manage a smart large object in an sbspace.
Three groups of information make up the storage characteristics
for a smart large object:
- Disk-storage information
- Attribute information
- Open-mode information
You can specify storage characteristics at three points.
| When specified | Method of specification |
|---|---|
| When an sbspace is created | Options of onspaces utility |
| When a database table is created | Keywords in PUT clause of CREATE TABLE statement |
| When a smart large object is created | DataBlade API functions |
The following topics describe the three groups of storage characteristics.
