VIEWB2 displays the alternate buffer pool assignments for objects of all schemas as well as area level assignments. Since objects in a Type II area can be assigned to an alternate buffer pool independently of their area assignment, each object in a Type II area is displayed regardless of the area status. Although objects in a Type I area cannot be explicitly assigned to the alternate buffer pool, they are individually listed to clearly identify the objects associated with a storage area when a storage area is assigned to the alternate buffer pool.
