Changing Default Data Area Attributes Using changeda

The changeda -d option allows you to change default data area attribute values for the data area.

To change default data area attributes

At a Landmark command prompt, type

changeda -d [attribute=value] [-v displayoptions] dataarea

where the default data area attributes that can be changed are:


Attribute	Value
`space`	The database space name. The space must already exist in the data area if you want to assign it as the default. See Space Attributes.
`charset`	The character set name.
`splitlobstorage`	If you set this to `true`, LOBs will be placed in separate tables and these tables will not be included in a database reorganization unless necessary. For a new installation, the default value of this attribute is `true`. For more information on how to convert to using split LOB storage, see Converting to Split LOB Storage.
`pmyincludedeleteflag`	If you set this to `true`, the system more efficiently processes searches against primary indexes that have deleted records. For a new installation, the default value of this attribute is `true`. For systems being updated to Landmark 10.0.2, you must run `changeda` to set the value to `true.`

Note:

Only one attribute can be specified when running this command. To change more than one, run the command multiple times.

Other values in the command syntax are:


Entry	Description
`dataarea`	The data area to change attributes for.
`-v displayoptions`	`errorlevel`, `tracelevel`, and `verbose` specified in any order, where: errorlevel = {n}none \| {f}atal \| {e}rror \| {w}arning (warning is the default) tracelevel = 0:6 where 0 is no message and 6 is everything verbose = whether to display exception stacktrace
