- NAME
- save - save a relation until a date.
-
- SYNOPSIS
- _s_a_v_e relname _u_n_t_i_l month day year
-
- DESCRIPTION
- _S_a_v_e is used to keep relations beyond the default 7 day life
- span.
-
- _M_o_n_t_h can be an integer from 1 through 12, or the name of
- the month, either abbreviated or spelled out.
-
- Only the owner of a relation can _s_a_v_e that relation. There
- is an INGRES process which typically removes a relation im-
- mediately after its expiration date has passed.
-
- The actual program which destroys relations is called purge.
- It is not automatically run. It is a local decision when
- expired relations are removed.
-
- System relations have no expiration date.
-
- EXAMPLE
- /* Save the emp relation until the end of February 1987 */
- save emp until feb 28 1987
