Indicates that no materialized query tables will be considered.

SYSTEM

Indicates that only system-maintained materialized query tables that are refresh deferred will be considered.

USER

host-variable

A variable of type CHAR or VARCHAR. The length of the contents of host-variable must not exceed 255 bytes. It cannot be set to null. If host-variable has an associated indicator variable, the value of that indicator variable must not indicate a null value.

Note:
  • The initial value of the CURRENT MAINTAINED TABLE TYPES FOR OPTIMIZATION special register is determined by the value on the CURRENT MAINT TYPES field on installation panel DSNTIP8. The default value of the field is SYSTEM.
  • The CURRENT REFRESH AGE special register needs to be set to a value other than zero in order for the specified types of objects to be considered for optimizing the processing of dynamic SQL queries.
  • The CURRENT MAINTAINED TABLE TYPES FOR OPTIMIZATION special register affects dynamic statement cache matching.
