Re: drop empty dbspace & dbimport error...
Posted in 2001
Hi again,
I will add two more temporary dbspaces at larger sizes each.
Is there any performance impact in creating all temporary dbspaces the same
size, as I will have six @ 50MB and two at >50Mb?
How can I determine index size?
Regards,
Denmark W.
