Re: Create GLOBAL TABLE

1.The sintax for create table is :
    CREATE [ [ GLOBAL | LOCAL ] { TEMPORARY | TEMP } ] TABLE table_name (
  { column_name data_type [ DEFAULT default_expr ] [ column_constraint [
... ] ] ...

What mean the parameter GLOBAL|LOCAL ??

2. in pg_class it is a field "relisshared" how can i use it ?
3.1 how can I use BKI script ?,
3.2 it is posible to modify postgres.bki to create another table with initdb
script ?
 like: "create bootstrap shared_relation .." ?
