NonStop dba/m Database Manager for NonStop SQL/MP User’s Guide 522632-004 11-1
CHAPTER 11. MANAGING CATALOGS
dba/m Database Manager provides tools for managing user catalogs. Using
dba/m Database Manager, you can
• Create new user catalogs in the current node
• Alter the attributes of an existing catalog
• Drop user catalogs in a node
• Upgrade user catalogs in a node
You cannot use dba/m Database Manager to manage system catalogs. You
must manage system catalogs using the SQLCI utility.
You can manage catalogs by accessing windows from the Object Tree
button, the Custom Tree button, or the Tables button in the Main window
as shown in Figure 11-1.
The procedures in this chapter only describe how to access catalog
management windows from the Catalogs menu button. Refer to Chapter 3
for information about managing catalogs from the Object Tree, and
Chapter 4 for information about the Custom Tree.
