The PADCHAR keyword defines the pad character used to fill any uninitialized record bytes. Uninitialized record bytes may be created using such commands as COPY or with keywords like CHANGE. With COPY uninitialized record bytes are created when copying to a larger record, without specifically initializing the extra bytes in the larger record. The default value is low-values, x'00'. Supplying the PADCHAR keyword is the only way to override the default value.
