User, Database, or Profile DEFAULT MAP OVERRIDE ON ERROR Option

If the map you specify is not valid for any reason, (such as it does not exist, has not been granted to you, the system either substitutes a default map or returns an error, subject to the values of the DEFAULT MAP settings for your PROFILE, USER, or DATABASE.

Default Map for a CREATE TABLE (Queue Table Form) Statement

If you do not specify the MAP option when creating a queue table, the system determines a default map for the table in following order of precedence:
  • If the immediate owner is not the creator:
    • Default map, if defined, for the profile of the immediate owner.
    • Default map, if defined, for the immediate owner.
    • System-default map.
  • Default map, if defined, for the profile of the creator.
  • Default map, if defined, for the creator.
  • System-default map.
