Indicates how the IM column store is populated on various instances. The possible values are:

  • DEFAULT: Data is populated on all instances specified with the PARALLEL_INSTANCE_GROUP initialization parameter. If that parameter is not set, then the data is populated on all instances. This is the default.

  • NONE: Data is not populated on any instance.

  • ALL: Data is populated on all instances, regardless of the value of the PARALLEL_INSTANCE_GROUP initialization parameter.
