Identifiers in onutil Commands

An identifier names a storage object such as a dbspace. The onutil commands use identifiers for the following objects:

• Cogroup name (cogroup_name and cogroup_range_identifier)
• Coserver name (coserver_name, coserver_list, and coserver_range_identifier)
• Dbslice name (dbslice_name)
• Dbspace name (dbspace_name and dbspace_list)
• Generated dbspace name (derived_dbspace_identifier)
• Index name (index_name)
• Logslice name (logslice_name)
• Pathname (pathname_format)

A simple identifier is a string of at most 18 characters. The first character of an identifier must be a letter. The remaining characters can be any combination of letters, digits, or underscores.
