If you create a storage space with the same name as the deleted storage
space, perform another level-0 backup to ensure that future restores do not
confuse the new storage space with the old one. For more information, see
the IBM Informix Backup and Restore Guide.
Warning:
After you drop a dbspace, blobspace, or sbspace, the newly freed chunks are
available for reassignment to other dbspaces, blobspaces, or sbspaces. However,
before you reassign the newly freed chunks, you must perform a level-0 backup
of the root dbspace and the modified storage space. If you do not perform
this backup, and you subsequently need to perform a restore, the restore might
fail because the backup reserved pages are not up-to-date.
