Extending HCL OneDB™Beyond standard relational database objects, HCL OneDB™ can be extended to handle specialized data types, access methods, routines, and other objects. HCL OneDB™ includes many built-in extensions that are fully integrated in the database server. HCL OneDB™ also provides DataBlade® modules, which are packages of extended database objects for a particular purpose and that are installed separately from the database server. Alternatively, you can create your own user-defined objects for HCL OneDB™.
Creating extensionsYou can create user-defined data types, routines, access methods, and other database objects to suit your needs. You can use application programming interfaces to write user-defined routines and applications that access data in HCL OneDB™ databases.
User-Defined Routines and Data Types Developer's GuideThe HCL OneDB™ User-Defined Routines and Data Types Developer's Guide describes how to define new data types and enable user-defined routines (UDRs) to extend HCL OneDB™.
Manage a user-defined routine
Assign the execute privilege to a routine
Run a UDR as DBAIf a DBA creates a routine with the DBA keyword, the database server automatically grants the Execute privilege only to other users with the DBA privilege. However, a DBA can explicitly grant the Execute privilege on a DBA routine to a non-DBA user.

Run a UDR as DBA

If a DBA creates a routine with the DBA keyword, the database server automatically grants the Execute privilege only to other users with the DBA privilege. However, a DBA can explicitly grant the Execute privilege on a DBA routine to a non-DBA user.

When a non-DBA user who has Execute privilege runs a routine that is registered with the DBA keyword, that user assumes the privileges of a DBA for the duration of the routine. Before the database server exits from a DBA routine, it implicitly revokes the temporary DBA privilege.
