QUERY_TEMP_SPACE_LIMIT option

Function

Constrains the use of temporary IQ dbspace by user queries.

Allowed values

Any integer

Default

2000MB

Scope

DBA permissions are not required to set this option. Can be set temporary, for an individual connection, or for the PUBLIC group. Takes effect immediately.

Description

If Sybase IQ receives a query that requires a temporary result space larger than value of this option, it rejects the query with this message:

Query rejected because it exceeds total space resource limit

If you set this option to zero, there is no limit and no queries are ever rejected based on their temporary dbspace requirements.
