AT { \node }

specifies the information to display and the format for the display.

Considerations—DISPLAY USE OF
Authorization requirements
DISPLAY USE OF requires authority to read the catalogs that describe the object
you specify and the catalogs that describe all its dependent objects and programs.
DISPLAY USE OF searches the USAGES table in the catalog that describes
object to find the names of objects or programs that depend on object, then
searches the catalogs that describe the dependent objects and finds the names of
objects that in turn depend on the dependent objects. DISPLAY USE OF repeats this
process until it finds all objects that depend directly or indirectly on object.
DISPLAY USE OF lists only registered SQL programs. Unregistered SQL programs
cannot be listed because neither such programs nor their dependency relationships
are described in catalogs.
The types of objects that can depend on each type of object are as follows:
Partitioned objects
The USAGES catalog table contains descriptions of the relations among primary
partitions only. The only exception to this rule is that the USAGES table describes a
relation between each partition of a protection view and the corresponding partition
of the table that the protection view depends on. If an object is dependent on a

programs.

and catalog name for the object and for dependent objects and programs.
