| -c |
Creates a dbspace,
blobspace, sbspace, or extspace
You can create up to 2047 storage spaces
of any type. |
Additional Information: After you create a storage space, you must back up both this storage
space and the root dbspace. If you create a storage space with the same name
as a deleted storage space, perform another level-0 backup to ensure that
future restores do not confuse the new storage space with the old one.
References: For more information, see creating a dbspace,
blobspace, or extspace, in the chapter on managing disk space in the IBM Informix Administrator's Guide. |
| -l location |
Specifies the location of the extspace
The
access method determines the format of this string. |
Restrictions: String. Value must
not be longer than 255 bytes.
References: For more
information, see creating an extspace, in the chapter on managing disk space
in the IBM Informix Administrator's Guide. |
| -o offset |
Indicates, in kilobytes, the offset into the disk partition
or into the device to reach the initial chunk of the new blobspace, dbspace,
or sbspace |
Restrictions: Unsigned integer. The starting offset must
be equal to or greater than 0. The starting offset plus the chunk size cannot
exceed the maximum chunk size.
The maximum offset is 2 or 4 gigabytes, depending on the platform.

raw disk space, in the chapter on managing disk space in the IBM Informix Administrator's Guide. |
| -s size |
Indicates, in kilobytes, the size of the initial chunk
of the new blobspace or dbspace |
Restrictions: Unsigned integer. The
size must be equal to or greater than 1000 kilobytes and a multiple of the
page size. The starting offset plus the chunk size cannot exceed the maximum
chunk size.
The maximum chunk size is 2 or 4 terabytes, depending on
the platform. |
| -x extspace |
Names the extspace to be created |
Restrictions: Extspace names can
be up to 128 characters. They must be unique, begin with a letter or underscore,
and contain only letters, digits, underscores, or $ characters.

in the chapter on managing disk space in the IBM Informix Administrator's Guide. |
