RE: informix 11.70 growth edition features

Posted By: John Miller iii

In Response To: RE: informix 11.70 growth edition features (Paul Watson)

Paul:

The use of the syntax does not constitute a distributed operation.

If you are referencing the current database with the full name or another
database inside the same instance this is NOT
a distributed operation, but rather if you reference a different instance
then you are doing distributed work .
