How to copy with large user running concurrently?
Dear all, I have a SUN host ,F12000, 4cpu, 4 GB ram, running IDS 7.3 and it servers about 100 users at regular time and working fine. Now that We have a plan to open to the public for query and inserting data for a few days, and there will be more than 50 thousands peoples come in at the same time, and insert data concurrently. I am scared that the system will crash or what, I can't image what will it happen at that time. I don't want to cost much more money to scale up my host, because It last only for a few days. Is anyone can help me through this cheaperly?
100 user license and you want 50,000 to use the system - interesting:-) How many are truly concurrent? What are they doing, how are they entering the data, is it logged, is the system on it's knees with a 100 users etc etc On our web sites the worst 'real' true concurrent rate we see is about 100 (ish), this equates back to about 1M page per hour. We've peaked at about 2000 with a run queue over 1500 (ish) but there was an index missing.

Seriously (although, seriously, have you considered negotiating a deal with IBM to avoid breaching your licence, if you're not already cpu-based?) can you not do some testing, perhaps by getting test simulation software running to generate the load? -- Neil Truby t:01932 724027 Director m:07798 811708 Ardenta Limited e:neil.truby@ardenta.com
