RE: DBA Question

["Wilt, Charles" <CWilt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Tom,

This isn't completely true at v5r3.

You can create a partitioned tabled using SQL that results in a multi-member PF 
object on the iSeries.  Granted, you can't use the ADDPFM command on the 
resulting PF, but it does contain multiple members.
