UPGRADE CATALOG Command

table named STUDENTS, directing SQL to calculate the statistics based on the 
contents of the first 300 blocks in each partition:
UPDATE STATISTICS FOR TABLE STUDENTS SAMPLE 300 BLOCKS;
UPGRADE CATALOG Command
UPGRADE CATALOG is an SQLCI utility command that converts catalogs to a newer 
version so the catalogs can register objects associated with a newer version of the 
SQL/MP software.
catalogs
specifies the catalogs to upgrade. It can be a single catalog name, a type 
CATALOG DEFINE name, or a name that specifies multiple catalogs by including 
these wild-card characters:
For example, these names specify multiple catalogs:
Catalogs specified by catalogs can be either local or remote, but cannot be 
system catalogs. (Use UPGRADE SYSTEM CATALOG to convert a system 
catalog.)
The default is the current default catalog.
If SMF is installed on your node, catalogs cannot specify any catalog on a 
$*.ZYS*. subvolume.
TO version
specifies the catalog format version for the upgraded catalog.
You can express version as an integer (2, 300, 310, 315, 320, 325, or 330) or as 
a string (A011, A300, A310, A315, A320, A325, or A330), but the version you 
UPGRADE CATALOG[S] [ catalogs ] [ TO version ] ;
? matches any single character
* matches 0 to 8 characters
MYCAT? matches MYCAT1, MYCAT2, and MYCATX (and possibly others), 
but not MYCAT48
$DATA.* matches all catalogs on volume $DATA
=APPCAT matches the catalog specified by the =APPCAT DEFINE
(MYCAT?,
=APPCAT)
matches MYCAT1, MYCAT2, MYCATX, (and possibly others) and 
the catalog specified by =APPCAT
$*.* matches all catalogs on the current default node except the system 
catalog
