Assume you alter the hash index to use a sparse map:

     ALTER HASH INDEX ord_cust_hidx, MAP=SmallTableMap;

This example returns the create text for hash index ord_cust_hidx in XML format:

     SHOW IN XML HASH INDEX ord_cust_hidx;

The XML document generated reports all of the information required to recreate the hash index:

     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?><TeradataDBObjectSet version="1.0" xmlns="http://schemas.teradata.com/dbobject" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://schemas.teradata.com/dbobject http://schemas.teradata.com/dbobject/DBObject.xsd">
