Distributed Database Maintenance Tasks
A distributed database can be made up of tables, views, procedures, and indexes in local Ingres databases, remote Ingres databases, and non-Ingres databases accessible through Enterprise Access products.
Database maintenance tasks include:
• Creating distributed databases
Note:  You are not limited in the number of databases that you can create. You can create as many databases as your operating system allows.
• Destroying databases
• Creating tables and views on distributed databases
• Removing tables and views
• Registering (defining to Ingres Star) tables, views, and procedures (indexes are registered automatically)
• Refreshing registered tables or views
• Removing registrations
