    Goal

    Solution

    APPLIES TO:

    Hyperion Essbase - Version 9.3.1.0.00 to 11.1.2.1.000 [Release 9.3 to 11.1]Information in this document applies to any platform.*** Checked for Relevance 28-May-2014 ***

    GOAL

    What are the default and recommended values for the Database Cache settings (Index Cache, Data File Cache and Data Cache)?

    SOLUTION

    The following information is pulled directly from the Essbase Database Administrator's Guide. The recommended settings maynot apply to all Essbase database models.

    The default and recommended settings for the Index Cache:

    Minimum Value: 1024 KB (1048576 bytes)

    Default Value: Buffered I/O: 1024 KB (1048576 bytes)Direct I/O: 10240 KB (10485760 bytes)

    Recommended Value: Combined size of all ess*.ind files, if possible; as large as possible otherwise. Do not set this cache size higher than the totalindex size, as no performance improvement results.To determine the total index size, see Index Files on page (1026). In general, if you are using direct I/O, make the indexcache as large as system resources allow. If you are using buffered I/O, make the index cache as small as possible.

    The default and recommended settings for the Data Cache:

    Minimum Value: 3072 KB (3145728 bytes)

    Default Value: 3072 KB (3145728 bytes)

    Recommended Value: 0.125 * the value of data file cache size. Increase value if any of these conditions exist: Many concurrent users are accessing different data blocks.Calculation scripts contain functions on sparse ranges, and the functions require all members of a range to be in memory(for example, when using @RANK and @RANGE). For data load, the number of threads specified by the DLTHREADSWRITE setting is very high and the expanded block size islarge.

    Note: Make the data cache as small as possible whether you are using buffered I/O or direct I/O.For information on testing and fine tuning cache settings, see Fine Tuning Cache Settings on page (842).

    The default and recommended settings for the Data File Cache:

    Minimum Value: Direct I/O: 10240 KB (10485760 bytes)

    Default Value:Direct I/O: 32768 KB (33554432 bytes)

    Direct I/O: 32768 KB (33554432 bytes)

    Recommended Value: Combined size of all ess*.pag files, if possible; otherwise as large as possible.This cache setting not used if Essbase is set to use buffered I/O.

    Note: In general, if you are using direct I/O, make the data file cache as large as system resources allow.If you are using buffered I/O, the data file cache is not used.
