Netezza Create Table if Not Exists

When running automated scripts I want to be able to create a table only if it doesn't exist.

Is there a way for netezza to evaluate this without throwing an error?

Starting in 7.2.1 this can be achieved.

create table IF NOT EXISTS table_name
( field_name varchar(10))

Conversely

You can can use if exists to only drop tables that exist.

drop table table_name if exists;
