SYSPACKAUTH catalog table

The SYSPACKAUTH table records the privileges that are held by users over packages. The schema is SYSIBM.

Start of changeFL 505 SYSIBM.SYSPACKAUTH has an associated history table, SYSIBM.SYSPACKAUTH_H, which provides temporal versioning of the catalog table. Both tables contain the same columns, with the same data types. The temporal relationship must be enabled before the history table can be used. Rows in the history table can be deleted by using the REORG TABLESPACE DISCARD option. For information about enabling the temporal relationship, see Temporal versioning for Db2 security-related catalog tables.End of change
