Inside the UI, the country and continent (region) are set and restricted to a pop-up list of values. The pop-up list is based on a separate table called COUNTRY. New countries can be added to the list by creating new rows in the COUNTRY table with SQL INSERT statements. See Updating NODEDETAILS with SQLPlus
Example:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
SQL> insert into country (country_id, country, continent, tld) 2 values (country_seq.nextval, 'Bermuda', 'Latin America', 'bm'); 1 row created. SQL> commit; Commit complete; SQL> exit; Disconnected from Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bit Production With the Partitioning and Real Application Testing options 52cottrell@pinger:~> |
The COUNTRY table is not used except by the list of values in the UI. Note that if a country name needs to be changed or if a country was placed in the wrong region, it must be updated on all the nodes in the NODEDETAILS table as well as on the COUNTRY table.
