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.

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.
