The built-in data types are categorized as follows:
Numeric
String
Date-time
XML
The user-defined data types are categorized as:
User-defined distinct type
User-defined structured type User-defined reference type
In addition to these, special data types designed to beused with the DB2 Extenders.

Built-in data types XML
An value that is stored in a column defined with theExtensible Markup Language (XML) data type must be a
well-formed XML document.
XML documents can only be stored in single-partition
databases that have been defined using the UTF-8 codeset.
XML values are processed in an internal representation
that is not comparable to any string value.
XMLSERIALIZE (XML value ) = serialized string value
XMLPARSE(string value) = XML value

User-defined Data Types
User-defined distinct types-Define a new data type based on a built-in type. This new
type has the same features, but you can use it to ensurethat only values of the same type are compared.
-
CREATE DISTINCT TYPE CANDOL AS DECIMAL(10,2)WITH COMPARISONS
User-defined structured types-Allows you to create a type that consists of several columns of built-in
types. For example, you can create a structured type named ADDRESS
that contains data for street number, street name, city, and so forth.User-defined reference types
-When using structured types, define references to rows in another tableusing reference types.

DB2 Extenders
Provide support for complex, nontraditional data
types
Packaged separately from the DB2 server code and
is database dependantFor example, the DB2 Image Extender includes:
-The DB2IMAGE UDT
-UDFs to insert/retrieve from a db2image column
-APIs to search based on characteristics of images

Tables
All data is stored in tables in the database. A tableconsists of one or more columns of various datatypes. The data is stored in rows or records.
May be defined using:- The CREATE TABLE SQL statement
- A GUI tool, the DB2 Control Center
The catalog view SYSCAT.TABLES contains a row
for each table defined in the database.SYSCAT.COLUMNS contains a row for each columnof each table in the database.

Creating Tables with XML Columns
CREATE TABLE emp_resume (empid INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,resume XML,CONSTRAINT xv CHECK (resume IS VALIDATED))
XML column used has the following restrictions:
It cannot be part of primary key, foreign key orUNIQUE orany index except an XML index.
It cannot have a specified default value or a WITH DEFAULT
clause-if the column is nullable, the default value for thecolumn is the null value.
It can be checked for its validity and well-formed ness if theCHECK constraint contains the VALIDATED predicate.

Creating Tables with Identity Columns
DB2 Database Manager can automatically generate numbersfor a column if the column is defined as an identity column.
The syntax used to create an identity column is:
[ColumnName][DataType] GENERATED AS IDENTITY

Constraints
Unique constraints, which are used to ensure that values ina column are unique
[UNIQUE | PRIMARY KEY]
Referential integrity constraints, which are used to definerelationships between tables.
REFERENCES[PKTableName]

Referential Integrity Constraints UPDATE Rule
RESTRICT
- Update for parent key will be
rejected if a row in dependent
table matches original values of
key.
NO ACTION
- Update operation for parent key
will be rejected if any row in
dependent table does not have a
corresponding parent key when
update statement is completed .
- This is the default.

Referential Integrity Constraints DELETE Rule
RESTRICT
- Delete for parent key will be
rejected if a row in dependent
table matches original values of
key.
NO ACTION
- Delete operation for parent key
will be rejected if any row in
dependent table does not have acorresponding parent key when
update statement is completed .
- This is the default.
CASCADE
- Implies that deleting a row in
parent table automatically
deletes any related rows in
dependent table.
SET NULL
- Ensures that deletion of a row in
parent table sets values offoreign key in any dependent
row to null (if nullable).
-Other parts of row are
unchanged.

Alter Table
Using it you can add or
drop:
A column
A primary key
One or more unique
or referential
constraints
One or more check
constraints
You can also change:
The identity attributes of a column
The length of a string column
(Only increase)
The datatype of a column but new
datatype must be compatible. For
example, convert an INTEGER
column to BIGINT is possible, but,
a DECIMAL(10,2) column cannotbe converted to SMALLINT
The nullability of a column
The constraint of a column

Informational Constraints
Informational Constraints are notenforced during insert andupdate processing. However,the DB2 SQL Optimizer will
evaluate an informationalconstraint when resolve a query.
Defined by appending thekeywordsNOT ENFORCEDENABLE QUERYOPTIMIZATION to a normalconstraint
NOT ENFORCED constraints are never checked by the
system, Not even by SET INTEGRITY

21
Temporarily Suspending Constraint Checking
Constraint checking for a table can be suspended temporarily
by executing the SET INTEGRITY statement.
-SET INTEGRITY FOR employees OFF
To resume constraint checking for the EMPLOYEES table thatconstraint checking was suspended
-SET INTEGRITY FOR employees IMMEDIATE CHECKED
If you want to transfer all offending rows in a separate table
say BAD_ROWS
-SET INTEGRITY FOR employees IMMEDIATE CHECKED
FOR EXCEPTION IN employees USE bad_rows

SET CURRENT SCHEMA
Schemas are objects that are used to logically classify andgroup other objects in the database.
Two-part naming convention to avoid namespace collisionsfor example, in PAYROLL.STAFF first part is schema name.
The CURRENT SCHEMA (or CURRENT_SCHEMA) specialregister contains a value that identifies the schema name if noschema/qualifier name is specified, default is authorization IDof the current session user.
To change the value of the CURRENT SCHEMA,
SET CURRENT SCHEMA= 'PAYROLL'On reconnect, the CURRENT SCHEMA special register will
contain your authentication ID, not the value you assigned itearlier.

Declared Temporary Tables
It is used to create temporary tables that are used only during
a session.
The only object that can be DECLARED is a table.
These tables are not persistent and can be used only by the
application that creates them. When the application
terminates, the rows of the table are deleted, and the
definition of the table is dropped.
DECLARE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE
T1 LIKE TRANSACTIONSON COMMIT PRESERVE ROWS
NOT LOGGED IN SESSION TEMP;
(LOB data will be replaced by zeros)

A Closer Look At Views
A view provides a transparent view of the data inunderlying tables. Contains no data itself. Appears
just like a table to the user. Can also be used torestrict which rows and columns can be viewed or
updated
You can create a view on an existing table (or tables)or on another view or any combination. A view definedon another view is called a nested view.
If a table or another view on which a view is based isdropped, the view remains defined in the database butbecomes inoperative.

Views with CHECK Options
Data may be inserted or updated in the underlying tablesthrough a view.
CREATE VIEW nonfictionbooks AS
SELECT * FROM books WHERE booktype = 'N
WITH CHECK OPTION
WITH CHECK OPTION tells DB2 to check that statementsusing the view satisfy the conditions of the view.
WITH CASCADED CHECK OPTION must satisfy the
conditions of the view and all underlying views, even if thoseviews were not defined with the check option.
WITH LOCAL CHECK OPTION need only satisfy conditionsof views which have the check option specified.

A Closer Look At Indexes
An index is an object that contains an ordered set of pointersthat refer to rows in a base table.
Two reasons why you might create an index:
-To ensure uniqueness of values in a column or columns.
-To improve performance of queries against the table whendefined on the appropriate column(s).
Non-unique indexes allow duplicate key values; unique
indexes allow only one occurrence of a key value in the list
including a single null value. Indexes are additional copies of the values so they must be
updated if the data in the table is updated. For frequent
updates, this could impact performance.

28/45
IBM DB2 9
28
Example of creating a non-unique index in ascending order :
-CREATE INDEX ibookname ON books (bookname)
You can specify different orders for the columns in the index:
-CREATE INDEX i2bookname ON books (authoidDESC, bookname ASC)
Specify a bidirectional index:
-CREATE INDEX bibookname ON books (bookname)
ALLOW REVERSE SCANS
A clustering index increases performance by decreasing no.of I/O, since like data values are stored on the same page.
-CREATE UNIQUE INDEX indx ON employees(empno) CLUSTER
An index can be placed in a separate table space from thetable, but only in the CREATE TABLE statement.

Another Look at Triggers
A triggeris used to define a set of actions that are to beexecuted whenever an insert, update, or delete operation isperformed against a table or updatable view.
Like constraints, triggers are often used to enforce dataintegrity and business rules.
Unlike constraints, triggers can also be used to update othertables, automatically generate or transform values for insertedor updated rows, and invoke functions to perform tasks suchas issuing errors or alerts.
Ex. CREATE TRIGGER pay_raise
BEFORE UPDATE ON employeesFOR EACH ROWSET new.salary = salary * 1.1
