Description

The number of file pages in Table E

When you create a file, you can specify how many file pages to allocate to Table E. To store Large Object data in Table E, the minimum setting for ESIZE is 20. Each Large Object field requires a minimum of one Table E page (unless defined with MINLOBE).

The maximum setting for ESIZE is 1,073,741,823.

Note: The default value for ESIZE, zero (0), assumes that you do not actually plan to have Large Object data in files you create using Model 204 V6R1 or higher. However, even if Table E has a size of zero, it is still part of a file created in V6R1 or higher, so such files cannot be opened in pre-V6R1 versions of Model 204.
