the calculation of the extent sizes. 
Guardian security  oooo  The standard Guardian security 
setting to be used in creating the SQL 
tables. 
3.6.5 createPartition.sh script 
The createPartition.sh script accepts parameters interactively via the OSS command 
prompt. This is an optional script to partition certain SQL tables that would benefit 
from being spread across multiple volumes – either because of the volume of 
expected data or the frequency of update hits. 
Notes: 
1) The unstructured BuddySpace and FSM files must NOT be partitioned – only SQL 
tables are partitioned by this script. 
2) This script is designed to partition the SQL tables during the installation sequence.  
When partitioning is to be applied after the system has been used to store objects, then 
standard SQLCI commands can be used to add partitions and spread the existing rows 
over the new partitions. 
The following is a list of the SQL tables that are partitioned by this script: 
Table Name  Reason  for 
partitioning 
Usage 
qbuddy update 
frequency 
Publish and subscribe table for 
notification of BuddySet/Spaces 
being closed and reopened. 
buddysp  volume of data  One row for every BuddySpace. 
objbuddy  volume of data  Many rows for each object stored on 
the system. 
uidobj update 
frequency 
Used to allocate objectIds. 
Invoke the script from the OSS prompt by typing: 
createPartition.sh 
Accepted Parameter  Default Value  Usage 
Maximum Process Pin  512  One of the SQL Tables (UIDOBJ) 
uses  Process Pin as the partitioning 
key. You may optimise the spread of 
rows across all partitions by entering 
the maximum likely Process Pin (per 
CPU) on your system. 
List of Volumes  none  The  volumes where partitions are to 
be created. Volumes can be entered 
in two ways, either by keying in a 
simple list, or by responding to a list
