In IBM databases for z/OS, the physical options for a table can specify the tablespace in which a table resides, as well as the database name.
You declare a tablespace in a database and assign a table to a tablespace on the Physical Options (Common) tabs of their property sheets.
If the tablespace is not declared in any database, then the tablespace is not prefixed by any database name.
When you preview your table creation code, you can verify that the tablespace is prefixed by the name of the database.
