Syntax Element - Teradata QueryGrid

object_kind_2

An optional database object kind specification.

You can specify the following database object kinds to retrieve a comment for the kind of object they represent, but they are optional.

• DATABASE
• FOREIGN SERVER
• TABLE
• USER

If you specify an optional database_name with FOREIGN SERVER, the name must be TD_SERVER_DB. You cannot use a user_name with FOREIGN SERVER.

All existing rules for COMMENT apply for use with a FOREIGN SERVER object.

The optional comment string is recorded in DBC.TVM.
