Symbolic Variables in Storage Control Files
The storage control file contains definitions of objects (such as databases, table spaces, and tables) that define the physical storage layout of your database. Many of the options used in the object definitions are the equivalent of options in DB2 SQL statements. While most options within the objects are defined by actual values (for example, SegSize is set to 32), some options include symbolic variables that are substituted with the actual values that comply with your organization's standards. Review Table 5 for a list of the symbolic variables in the storage control file templates and the values substituted for them.
