Specifies one, two, or three threshold values. The threshold values represent a fullness percentage on a data page and establish four possible ranges of guaranteed free space on the data pages. When a data page reaches the percentage defined by a given threshold value, the SPAM entry for the data page is updated to reflect the new fullness percentage and its remaining free space. The default thresholds are 70,85, and 95 percent. If you specify only one or two values, unspecified values default to 100 percent. You can specify the THRESHOLDS option only on a storage area for a multifile database. Threshold values can be set for storage areas with MIXED or UNIFORM storage area page formats.
