[Figure: Overview of DSI initialization]
A DSI must be initialized before data is stored. The rdbfmt command performs DSI initialization. However, when the
rdbsloader command is used to store data, DSI initialization is unnecessary.
In addition, if the DSI is associated with a shared buffer to improve performance, the rdbconbf command must be
executed before the rdbfmt command. For more information on the rdbconbf and rdbfmt commands, refer to the man
command (under UNIX) or the SymfoWARE/RDB online manual (under Windows NT).
An example of DSI initialization follows.
Example:
Initialize created DSIs.
2.7.7 Scope definition
A scope is defined by using the CREATE SCOPE statement.
The CREATE SCOPE must be used by the person who defined table DSI.
Example:
Define scope TOKYO.
Scope name
Specify the name of a scope that limits the range of DSI names using up to 36 alphanumeric characters beginning
