Install the Precise environment before configuring the SQL Server-based PMDB. Before applying the information in this section, refer to the Precise Installation Guide.

Info

SQL Server 2000 is not supported in v9.0, so an upgrade is not available for such installations.

For an SQL Server-based PMDB, use an MS-SQL dedicated instance.

Auto Extent size for datafiles and logsThe size of the new segment to be allocated.30% of initial datafile (for example, if the datafile is initially 1 GB, the auto extent size should be 300 MB).

ParameterValueImprovement / Remarks
log_buffer

If the version <9.2.0.7, then the log_buffer = 3 MB, else the log_buffer= 16 MB. 


shared_pool_size1/4 of the physical memory.

The shared pool should not be too small (< 250 MB) or too large (>2 GB).

log_checkpoint_timeout

900 

open_cursors

300

Verify that you have enough open cursors for the application to execute.

Processes

300

Verify that you have enough processes for the application to execute.

db_writer_processes

Should be set according to the number of I/O devices you have for the database.

Improves I/O performance in cases of large I/O. Each writer is writing to different disks (improves loads, for example).

...

ParameterValueImprovements / Remarks

db_cache_size

Replaces parameter db_block_buffers. Sets the final size of the buffer pool to 1/3rd of the physical memory.

 

pga_aggregate_target

1/3rd of the physical memory.

 


workarea_size_policy

AutoThis parameter should be set to auto when we use the pga_aggregate_target parameter.
session_cached_cursors300 

DB-cache_advice

Verify that this parameter is set to off because the default value is on.

This parameter checks the work on the database and helps determine the recommended size of the Buffer pool. But this damages performance, so verify that it is on only for a short period.
