If you create a storage space with the same name as the
deleted storage space, perform another level-0 backup to ensure
that future restores do not confuse the new storage space with the
old one.
If you are using ON-Bar for your backup and restore system,
see the IBM Informix: Backup and Restore Guide. If you are using ON-Archive as
your backup and restore tool, refer to your IBM Informix: Archive and Backup Guide.
Warning:
After you drop a dbspace or blobspace, the newly freed
chunks are available for reassignment to other dbspaces or blobspaces.
However, before you reassign the newly freed chunks, you must perform
a level-0 backup of the root dbspace and the modified dbspace or blobspace.
If you do not perform this backup, and you subsequently need to
perform a restore, the restore might fail because the dbspace-backup
reserved pages are not up-to-date.
