Problem IT30736 | Status: Closed |
STORAGE PROVISIONING MIGHT SKIP STORAGE POOL ENTRIES DEPENDING ON SIZES AND VALUE STORED IN SP_THRESHOLD | |
product: | |
INFORMIX SERVER / 5725A3900 / C10 - IDS 12.10 | |
Problem description: | |
If the value of SP_THRESHOLD is set to a size so the system is considering sizes in kilobytes then it is possible for a dbspace / chunk to fall below this threshold but a significant amount but the chunks stored in the storage pool might be rejected because of their size. Imagine that there are NNN chunks added to the storage pool which are all 3000 kb in size and SP_THRESHOLD is 10000 kb and there is chunk which is initially 16000 kb in size. If a very large table is created in that chunk so that the free space is very low or approaching zero, then the system ignores all of the entries in the storage pool (i.e not even one of size 3000 will be added). The argument is that the processing should have added NNN storage pool chunks to the dbspace when it fell significantly below the value of SP_THRESHOLD. | |
