Create Map

Attribute

CreateMap (CM)

Purpose

Determines whether the driver creates the internal files required for a relational map of the native data when establishing a connection.

Valid Values

0 | 1 | 2 | 3

Behavior

If set to 0 (No), the driver uses the current REST file, internal files, and relational map in the location specified by the Schema Map option. If one does not exist, the connection fails.
If set to 1 (ForceNew), the driver deletes the current REST file, internal configuration files, and relational map in the location specified by the Schema Map option and creates a new set at the same location.
If set to 2 (NotExist), the driver uses the current REST file, internal files, and relational map in the location specified by the Schema Map option. If the files do not exist, the driver creates them.
If set 3 (Session), the driver uses memory to store the internal configuration information and relational map of native data. A REST file is not created when this value is specified. After the session, the view is discarded.

Default

3 (Session)
