I created an SDEVIEW using sdetable -o create_view command. The source feature class has ST_Geometry as the config keyword and I able to identify and select the feature class in ArcMap. The sdeview displays, zoom in/out but I am not able to select or identify the sdeview in ArcMap. I did check the object grants and privileges for ST_Geometry and they are all in place.
The best way to create a view which includes an ST_GEOMETRY column is to use SQL to define the view, making sure that it returns a NOT NULL integer (SE_INT32_TYPE) column, then to use 'sdelayer -o register' on the view, with the INT32 as a USER-set registered rowid column. - V
I applied ArcSDE 9.3.1 SP2 and it did resolve the issue. I am able to create the view with sdetable -o create view, select and identify the spatial view feature created on the map.
