Well, the commandline usage info does not match the man page for ovwdb.
I'll bet that option does not actually do anything any more. The one you
want
to mess with is the Cache. Make sure that is at least 20% greater than the
number of objects shown in the output of 'ovobjprint -S'. If cache is close
to
or less than that, and it defaults to 5000, you will indeed see super
slowness.

Subject:  [NV-L] ovwdb startup option "-b"



Hi there,

I found a command line startup option for ovwdb which looks interesting to
try ...

However I can't find ant doco for it (so far ...)

The output from "ovwdb -h" reports:

Usage: ovwdb [-O] [-d dbname] [-P <port>] [-n <number_of_objects>] [-b
db_buffer_size]
        -O                     Assume started by ovspmd
        -d dbname              Set name of database
        -P port                Use <port> as the TCP port number
        -n number_of_objects   Cache only a limited number of objects
        -b db_buffer_size      Use a temporary <buffer_size> byte buffer in
the database to increase performance

I'm interested in trying the -b option as our system runs REAL slow.

nvsetup doesn't let you change most of these options, so I'd have to edit
the lrf file.

Anyone know if there is a default size setting, or is there none at all?

We have Netview Unix 6.01
