Description

The CREATE PARTITION command defines an RTR partition. The partition characteristics that may be defined include key range or ranges and whether attached server processes can be shadows or standbys.

The command must be issued before any server application programs using the partition are started.

Parameters

partition_name

Specifies the name of the partition to be created. Partition names must be unique within a facility.

Any application program which uses this partition must specify the same name when it calls rtr_open_channel( ).

Partition names can contain up to sixty-three (63) characters. Letters, numbers and underline characters are all valid, but the first character of a partition name must be a letter.

If a partition name already exists in the facility, the command fails.

There is no default value for partition_name.

Qualifiers

/CLUSTER /NOCLUSTER (D)

Specifies that the command is executed on all the nodes in the cluster.

If neither /NODE nor /CLUSTER is specified then the command is executed on the nodes specified by the latest SET ENVIRONMENT command. If no SET ENVIRONMENT command has been entered then the command is executed only on the node where the command was issued.

Note: In environments that do not support clustering, use of the /CLUSTER qualifier will cause the relevant command to be executed on the local node only.
