Index Build LoggingSpecifies the degree of logging performed by DB2 when creating, recreating and re-organizing indexes. Value is one of not selected, NULL, OFF or ON. Not selected and NULL are the same. The table is created without this option and then altered to add this property. The default is not set (no alter takes place). The following describes the values:
