Default HUGE Files for Tables

HUGE files (c-tree files larger than four gigabytes) are frequently encountered with today’s massive storage needs. To accommodate these increased table sizes, FairCom DB SQL now creates files as HUGE by default. Before this change, FairCom DB SQL created new tables as standard c-tree files (not HUGE). An optional STORAGE_ATTRIBUTES clause containing ‘HUGE’ was available to create FairCom DB SQL HUGE tables.

Reversing the previous behavior, the STORAGE_ATTRIBUTES clause now supports a NOT HUGE option to create standard size c-tree tables.
