When the simple setup tool is employed to create HiRDB system definitions, the simple setup tool itself sets up the HiRDB environment. The HiRDB system definitions are created automatically on the basis of information specified with the simple setup tool and are stored in the files listed in Table 1-2. If necessary, the HiRDB administrator can use the simple setup tool to modify the definition contents (operand specification values).

Note that a UAP environment definition or SQL reserved word definition cannot be created using the simple setup tool.

When the system generator is employed to create HiRDB system definitions, the system generator itself sets up the HiRDB environment. The HiRDB system definitions are created automatically on the basis of information specified with the system generator and are stored in the files listed in Table 1-2. If necessary, the HiRDB administrator can use the OS text editor to modify the definition contents (operand specification values). For details about the operands created by the pdgen command, see G. Operands Created by the pdgen Command.

Note that a UAP environment definition or SQL reserved word definition cannot be created using the system generator.

When an OS text editor is employed to create HiRDB system definitions, commands are used to set up the HiRDB environment. HiRDB system definition operands are specified as appropriate to the HiRDB execution environment.

Once the HiRDB system definitions have been created, use the pdconfchk command to check the integrity of the HiRDB system definition operands; see F. Operands Checked by the pdconfchk Command for the operands that are checked.
