Registration failure with an sbspace test

If registration of a DataBlade® module with smart large objects fails, Notepad appears with the following message:
      blade: Poem.1.0
  err expct: unexpected
   SQL stmt: EXECUTE FUNCTION SYSBldTstSBSpace(" ");
  SQL state: XU0001:-937 : SYSBldTstSBSpace (ifxmngr): 
This message indicates one of the following problems:
  • You do not have a default sbspace.

    For instructions on adding an sbspace, see the Informix® Administrator's Guide for your database server.

  • You need to upgrade to HCL Informix, Version 9.14.UC5 or later.
