is also a system-wide catalog that is always in the QSYS2 library.</p>

<div class="section"><p>When an SQL object is created in a schema, information is added
|

to both the system catalog tables and the schema's catalog tables. When an

SQL object is created in a library, only the QSYS2 catalog is updated. A table

created with DECLARE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE is not added to a catalog. </p>
