Data storage using memstores

Memstores are containers that are maintained by the ObjectServer and hold ObjectServer tables and data in memory.

The ObjectServer uses the memstores described in the following table.

Table 1. Memstores 
Memstore name Storage type Description
MASTER_STORE Persistent Used to store internal descriptions of ObjectServer data.
TABLE_STORE Persistent Used to store information for the desktop, including the alerts.status table.
TEMP_STORE Transient Used to store data that does not need to be persistent. System tables that contain configuration information are stored here and recreated on startup.
VIRTUAL_STORE Virtual Used mainly to catalog rapidly changing data; for example, data about connected clients.

You can change the size of the table_store memstore by using the nco_store_resize utility.
