File system access

NoteDirectories and files mapped to proxy tables now have a file path limit of 255 bytes.

Adaptive Server provides access to the file system through the SQL language. With file system access, you can create proxy tables that are mapped to file system directories, or to individual files.

A new class of proxy tables is allowed in Adaptive Server that enables SQL access to file system directories and their underlying files. To create proxy tables mapped to directories or files, you must have System Administrator or System Security Officer privileges.

File system access features must be purchased separately.
