Documentation
Definition
This flag shows that a table should be transparent and that this attribute should be kept even after a change of release or an upgrade.
Use
You can convert pooled tables into transparent tables in a simple manner using the transparent flag. The pooled table must have 'active' status.
Activate the technical settings after setting the flag. You can now decide whether the table should be converted to a transparent table in the background or interactively for a pooled table.
If you want to change the type of a table whose transparent flag has been set, you must first reset the flag and activate the technical settings. The table type must then be changed explicitly and the table must be converted using the database utility.
Note: Only use the transparent flag if the table type is to change from pooled to transparent. You should never use the flag for other table conversions.
