RE: # of chunks for a dbspace !

onstat -d shows the maximum number of chunks for an IDS 7.3 instance to be 2047.The IDS 7.30.UC7XB release notes indicate that onmonitor can display a maximum of 1000 chunks. However, I would not recommend a large number of chunks. It can cause I/O contention among page cleaners, not to mention additional overhead. It is best to make each chunk for large dbspaces, especially psapbtab, close to 2-Gbytes in size. Your may also want to split psapbtab into multiple dbspaces to facilitate reorganizations, parallel backups, etc. -----Original Message----- From: Pramod Dhumal [mailto:pramodhumal@hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 27, 1999 15:40 To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: # of chunks for a dbspace !
