Creating a proxy table

Creating a proxy table

In a database, open the Proxy Tables folder.

If the Proxy Tables folder is not visible, you may need to configure Adaptive Server to use Component Integration Services.
Select File menu | New | Proxy Table, or double-click the Add Proxy table icon from the list of proxy tables.

Follow the instructions of the wizard.

The Create a New Proxy Table wizard asks for the information in Table 18-1. Additional details about creating proxy tables are provided in the following topics.

**Table 18-1: Inputs to the create a new proxy table wizard**
Input	Description
Table basis	Options: – Existing table or view – RPC – New proxy table and new remote table. – External file or directory External file or directory may not be an available option if you do not have an ASE_XFS license and if the file access configuration option is not enabled.
Remote server	The remote server on which the remote object exists or will be created.
Remote database	If applicable, the remote database in which the remote object exists.
Remote table or view	The existing tables or views to which the proxy tables will be mapped.
Remote object	A remote object (procedure), the result set of which the proxy table will be mapped. You can only specify one for each time you run the wizard. The wizard lists remote objects if it can obtain them from the remote server. If it cannot list objects, you can specify one manually.
Naming convention	For multiple proxy tables, a convention for naming the tables. Names must conform to naming conventions for Adaptive Server objects. For heterogeneous servers, be aware of how a prefix or suffix will interact with the names on the remote server.
Name case	For multiple proxy tables, choose upper or lower case
Table editor	For RPC mapping and new remote tables.

If applicable, complete the definition of the table in the table editor.
