DATACACHESIZE
The DATACACHESIZE configuration setting defines the data cache size for Essbase block storage cubes. The data cache is a buffer in memory that holds data blocks. Essbase allocates this memory during data load, calculation, and retrieval operations, as needed.
This setting does not apply to aggregate storage cubes.
Syntax
DATACACHESIZE nn—An integer value expressed in bytes (B), kilobytes (K), megabytes (M), or gigabytes (G):
-
Minimum value: 3 megabytes (3M)
-
Maximum value: 2 gigabytes (2G)
-
Default value: 100 megabytes (100M)
If a value is given without a B, K, M, or G qualifier, it is assumed the value is in bytes.
The qualifier can be in upper or lowercase and can be entered adjacent to the value (10M) or separated by a space (10 M).
Description
DATACACHESIZE specifies, in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes, the size of the data cache for cubes.
Example
DATACACHESIZE 90MSets the data cache size of databases to 90 megabytes.
