Record format sharing limitation with physical and logical files

You might encounter this record format sharing limitation when you are duplicating the same database object multiple times.

A record format can only be shared by 32KB objects. Error messages are issued when you reach this limitation.

Note: Format sharing is performed for files that are duplicated. The format is shared up to 32 767 times. Beyond 32 767 times, if a file that shares the format is duplicated, a new format is created for the duplicated file.
