Controling tablespace for a primary key index in alter table

3 New Member
Hi,
Using DB2 version 9, fixpak 2 on AIX 5L.

I created my DDL for defining a Primary Key to be done by a ALTER TABLE command, but I could not find a way of naming the tablespace to control were the index that gets created goes.

I did find that I could create the table with the clause "INDEX IN ...", name the tablespace I wanted and then when the ALTER TABLE ran it resulted in the index going into the tablespace I wanted. I guess I could also pre-create the index.

But is there a way of specifying the tablespace in an ALTER TABLE ADD CONSTRAINT ... command? I would prefer to do it that way, because it makes it explict where the index is going to go, when for what ever reason the constraint has to be dropped and re-created.

Regards

Pete

hi, i need advise and guidance from experts. Today, I discovered about 1464 tables created in SYSTEM tablespace and the owner is dev_user. As, i read from ORACLE 101 DBA's it said :'System tablespace is a tablespace user to stored objects belong to user SYS only. if, we do not ensure this, the SYSTEM tablespace will : • Tend to get very fragmented • Have potentially severe contention against it and affect performance

I created a table that has a column in that needs to contain a full Unix file path. Since 2048 was too long for a VARCHAR, I made it TEXT. I since populated the table.

So I allocated, like 4 million...
