Tuning HADB
The Application Server uses the high-availability database (HADB) to store persistent session
state data. To optimize performance, tune the HADB according to the load of the Enterprise
Server. The data volume, transaction frequency, and size of each transaction can aect the
performance of the HADB, and consequently the performance of Enterprise Server.

Disk Use
This section discusses how to calculate HADB data device size and explains the use of separate
disks for multiple data devices.
Calculating HADB Data Device Size
When the HADB database is created, specify the number, and size of each data device. These
devices must have room for all the user data to be stored. In addition, allocate extra space to
account for internal overhead as discussed in the following section.
