GOAL:
What considerations are needed when adding extents ?
GOAL:
What is necessary to do in UNIX when adding extents to a Database ?
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
Progress/OpenEdge Product Family
FIX:
When adding extents it may be required to increase the number of files that can be opened by the system adjusting the kernel parameter NFILE and the number of files that can be opened by a single process with the kernel parameter NOFILE (MAX_FILES in HP-UX).
Also consider the disk space required for all the extents, thinking that the last extent should be a variable one and it can grow up to 2 GB if Progress V6,V7 or V8 is used or Large Files hasn't been enabled.
