Creating a storage diagram

You can create a storage diagram to visualize the storage of your physical data objects.

You must create or open a data design project and physical data model before you can create a storage diagram.

You can only create storage diagrams for DB2 Universal Database™ for z/OS® or DB2 Universal Database for Linux®, UNIX®, and Windows® models and servers.

To create a storage diagram:
  1. Expand a physical data model project in the Data Project Explorer.
  2. Right-click the Storage Diagrams folder and choose one of the following options:
    • To create a diagram that automatically includes some or all elements, click Add Storage Overview Diagram. Then select elements to be included and click OK.
    • To create an empty diagram, click New Storage Diagram. You can then use the palette to add elements or click and drag them from the Data Project Explorer onto the diagram.
The new diagram opens in the diagram editor. The diagram is also displayed in the Diagrams folder under which you created it, and also in the Data Diagrams folder for the project.
