Tuning the database server

The database plays a crucial role in IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor by acting as the repository for the data IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor collects from the monitored servers. The database server must be able to handle all database operation requests issued by the IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor event processor (EP). The ability of the IBM Sterling Control Center Monitor EP to perform optimally depends on the capacity of the database server, and its hard disk speed is an important factor in providing better performance.

It is important to size the database appropriately.
