Determines whether the database engine creates tiered HG or single-tiered HG indexes.
ON, OFF
ON
Option can be set at the database (PUBLIC) or user level. When set at the database level, the value becomes the default for any new user, but has no impact on existing users. When set at the user level, overrides the PUBLIC value for that user only. No system privilege is required to set option for self. System privilege is required to set at database level or at user level for any user other than self.
Requires the SET ANY PUBLIC OPTION system privilege to set this option. Can be set temporary for an individual connection or for the PUBLIC role. Takes effect immediately.
If CREATE_HG_WITH_EXACT_DISTINCTS='ON', all subsequent HG indexes explicitly created with a CREATE INDEX command or implicitly creating or altering a table with a PRIMARY KEY or a FOREIGN KEY declaration, will be non-tiered HG indexes.
If CREATE_HG_WITH_EXACT_DISTINCTS='OFF', all subsequent HG indexes explicitly created with a CREATE INDEX command or implicitly creating or altering a table with a PRIMARY KEY or a FOREIGN KEY declaration, will be tiered HG.
