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.
