The detach segments from database job detaches a segment set from a database with transportable table space functionality. You might use the detach segments job if you want to archive a set of segments to preserve space in your production system. When you detach the segments, you can archive or move them and reattach them later with the attach segments to database job, if you choose.
If you run the detach segments from database job, you can no longer run the replace segmented tables with original tables job. You cannot detach or reattach the default segment.
Provide the following information to run this job:
SourceRep

SegmentSetName
Name of the segment set that you want to detach from the database.
