Transcript Proper Care and Feeding of your MDB

Multi-Disk Install Steps
for
Unicenter NSM r11 Ingres
- Last Revision: May 15, 2006
Objectives
- Separate DB and program files to different locations during install
- NSM install process (including nsmsetup.rsp) does not allow Ingres
files to be placed in different locations – this requires relocation of
db files after the install (which requires advanced Ingres skills!)
- Install Ingres and create MDB using silent install
- Review MDB “care and feeding” presentation (documents how to
relocate database files)
- This presentation focuses on how to split Ingres Data files onto
different disks during install - eliminating need to relocate after
