Because the Session ID and Creator Name are identical for all volatile tables created within a given session, these attributes are not provided in the HELP VOLATILE TABLE report. Similarly, you can obtain information for the following volatile table attributes by performing a SHOW TABLE statement (see SHOW object).
- Protection
- Commit Option
- Transaction Log Option
