Purpose
The Drop Cache statement drops the cache defined on a remote table. To drop a relational cache, the specified table must be the primary table of the relational cache. If a relational cache is specified, the cache for the primary table and all referenced caches are dropped.
Syntax
DROP CACHE ON {remote_table} [IF EXISTS]
where:
-
remote_table - is the name of the remote table cache to be dropped. The remote table
name can be a two-part name:
schemaname.tablename. When specifying a two-part name, the specified remote table must be mapped in the specified schema, and you must have the privilege to drop objects in the specified schema. -
IF EXISTS - specifies that an error is not to be returned if a cache for the remote table or view does not exist.
Notes
- Caches on views are not supported.
