Type=option

    If you use the Type qualifier, you must specify one of the
    following options:

    o  Process

       Specifies traditional shared memory global section, which
       means that the database global section is located in process
       (P0) address space and may be paged from the process working
       set as needed.

    o  Resident

       Specifies that the database global section is memory resident
       in process (P0) address space using OpenVMS Alpha shared page
       tables. This means that the global section is fully resident,
       or pinned, in memory, and uses less physical and virtual
       memory (for process page tables) than a traditional shared
       memory global section.

    o  System

       Specifies that the database global section is located in
       OpenVMS Alpha system space, which means that the section is
       fully resident, or pinned, in memory, does not use process
       (P0) address space, and does not affect the quotas of the
       working set of a process.
