CREATE Command
the size of all extents that are subsequently allocated (secondary extents). With the
FUP CREATE command, however, you can specify different sizes for primary and
secondary extents and can partition files into more than one volume. You can also
create files of a type other than unstructured. See the File Utility Program (FUP)
Reference Manual for a description of the FUP CREATE command.

If the RVU of the system (system procedure
FILE_GETINFOLISTBYNAME_) does not support INCOMPLETESQLDDL,
UNRECLAIMEDFREESPACE, PHYSICALVOLUME, or PHYSICALFILENAME,
this message is generated:
*ERROR* FILE_GETINFOLISTBYNAME_ error = 561
Examples
1. To create an unstructured disk file named DATAFL in your current default
subvolume, enter:
14> CREATE datafl
Because the default extent size is two pages (4096 bytes), the largest size
DATAFL can attain (when the maximum of 16 extents is allocated to the file) is 32
pages.
2. To create an unstructured file named BANANA in the subvolume $DSK1.SVOL,
with an extent size of 10,240 bytes (5 pages), enter:
15> CREATE $dsk1.svol.banana, 5
The largest size BANANA can attain (when the maximum of 16 extents is allocated
to the file) is 80 pages.
3. To specify a physical volume name when creating a logical file, enter:
>3 CREATE $v.s.f,2,$mg or CREATE $v.s.f,$mg,2
Either syntax specifies that logical file “$v.s.f” be created with a two-page extent
size on physical volume $mg.
