the redefines of a file

[micheline3]

Hello,
can someone tell me what "redefine" means in an IT context and when it refers to a file characteristics?
For example, what would mean to manage the redefines of a file in a system? Could it be the different savings of a file according to different criteria?
Les différents niveaux d'affinement d'un fichier ?

Thanks

Hi,

my guess would be "redéfinition d'un fichier", such as its length, its type, its columns, things like that.
