Specifies the highest value for the index key that resides in a particular storage area if ASCENDING is defined. If DESCENDING is defined, the lowest value is specified for the index key that resides in a particular storage are. For multicolumn index keys, specify a literal value for each column. The number of literals in the list must be the same as the number of columns in the USING clause. Repeat this clause to partition the entries of an index among multiple storage areas. The data type of the literals must agree with the data type of the column. For character columns, enclose the literals in single quotation marks. If you are creating a multisegmented index using multisegmented keys and the STORE USING . . . WITH LIMIT clause, and if the values for the first key are all the same, then set the limit for the first key at that value. This ensures that the value of the second key determines the storage area in which each row is stored.
