Anybody experienced in creating EVIs (encoded vector index)? I'm reading
the IBM help site but I have a couple of questions.
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/index.jsp?topic=/rzajq/whatareevi.htm
I have a new table that's going to have records added to it monthly.
The IBM site says to create EVIs on Read-only tables or tables with minimum
of INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE activity.
Once a month activity I wouldn't think would be an excessive amount of
activity. What do you thing?
If you agree with me, the site also states When Loading Data...
1. Drop EVIs, load data, create EVIs.
Is that true? It sounds like to me that before the monthly updating...
I'll need to drop the EVIs, then add my new records... then recreate the
EVIs.
That kinda sounds right, but also it doesn't. It sounds right so that the
information can be regathered. but then again, shouldn't that happen on
it's own?
If I have to drop the EVIs and recreate then I'm not going to be able to do
this. All though this table is only going to add new monthly records every
month, it's going to contain a lot of records. I'm not sure if we can
afford to have the recreation to run every month.
Any help will be appreciated.
