Description

USE

Grants the privilege to specify or default to the table space when creating a table. The creator of a table space automatically receives USE privilege with grant option.

OF TABLESPACE tablespace-name

Identifies the table space on which the USE privilege is to be granted. The table space cannot be SYSCATSPACE (SQLSTATE 42838) or a system temporary table space (SQLSTATE 42809).

TO

Specifies to whom the USE privilege is granted.

USER

Specifies that the authorization-name identifies a user.

GROUP

Specifies that the authorization-name identifies a group name.

ROLE

Specifies that the authorization-name identifies a role name. The role name must exist at the current server (SQLSTATE 42704).

authorization-name

Lists the authorization IDs of one or more users, groups, or roles.

The list of authorization IDs cannot include the authorization ID of the user issuing the statement (SQLSTATE 42502).

PUBLIC

Grants the USE privilege to a set of users (authorization IDs).

WITH GRANT OPTION

Allows the specified authorization-name to GRANT the USE privilege to others.

Rules

• For each authorization-name specified, if neither USER, GROUP, nor ROLE is specified, then:
  • If the security plug-in in effect for the instance cannot determine the status of the authorization-name, an error is returned (SQLSTATE 56092).
  • If the authorization-name is defined as ROLE in the database, and as either GROUP or USER according to the security plug-in in effect, an error is returned (SQLSTATE 56092).
  • If the authorization-name is defined according to the security plug-in in effect as both USER and GROUP, an error is returned (SQLSTATE 56092).
  • If the authorization-name is defined according to the security plug-in in effect as USER only, or if it is undefined, USER is assumed.
  • If the authorization-name is defined according to the security plug-in in effect as GROUP only, GROUP is assumed.
  • If the authorization-name is defined in the database as ROLE only, ROLE is assumed.
