Create Map

Attribute

CreateMap (CM)

Purpose

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

Valid Values

0 | 1 | 2

Behavior

If set to 0 (No), the driver uses the current group of internal files specified by the Schema Map connection option. If the files do not exist, the connection fails.
If set to 1 (ForceNew), the driver deletes the current group of files specified by the Schema Map connection option and creates new files in the same location.
If set to 2 (NotExist), the driver uses the current group of files specified by the Schema Map connection option. If the files do not exist, the driver creates them.

Notes

*The internal files share the same directory as the schema map's configuration file. This directory is specified by the value you enter for the Schema Map connection option.

Default

2 (NotExist)
