Sets and Subsets

Set and subset names are formed by taking the file name of the data set which the set or subset references, and replacing the word DATA with the set or subset name.

A disjoint set file name looks as follows: 

<database name>/<disjoint data set name>
                   /<disjoint set name>

An embedded set file name looks as follows: 

<database name>/<disjoint data set name>
                  /<embedded data set name>/....
                  /<embedded set name>

A disjoint subset file name looks as follows: 

<database name>/<disjoint data set name>
                  /<disjoint subset name>

An embedded subset file name looks as follows: 

<database name>/<disjoint data set name>
                   /<embedded data set name>/....
                   /<embedded subset name>

A disjoint physically sectioned set file name looks as follows: 

   <database name>/<disjoint data set name>/<disjoint set name>/<n>

The variable <n> is a 1-digit to 3-digit unsigned integer representing the section number. Section numbers start at zero (0). The maximum number of sections is 512.
