Does the 16 million page limit apply to a single fragment index


Technote (FAQ)


Question

There is a limit of 16775134 data pages per fragment in IBM Informix.

Is this also applicable to an index that resides in it's own single fragment?

Cause

Documentation does not indicate a limit for a dedicated fragment with index only.

Answer

No, there is no 16 million page limitation for a dedicated index fragment. However, the following limitations should be taken into consideration:


1) The dbspace page size
2) Index key size (for a given page size)
3) The ONCONFIG FILLFACTOR parameter
4) Sufficient free space in the dbspace dedicated for index storage
