Table Space Allocation (Create Table Space)
The Create Table Space: Allocation panel is optional, although most users need to specify a Db2® storage group and the size of the table space.
You have the option of defining Db2® data sets externally, or Db2® can create the data sets on behalf of you. The former option is selected by specifying a VCAT name in the data set parameters section of the panel. The most common option is to specify a (Db2®) storage group name. These parameters are mutually exclusive.
