Defines the initial value for the index cache size for any new databases that are created after Essbase is restarted. The index cache is a buffer in memory that holds index pages. Essbase allocates this memory at startup of the database.
This setting does not apply to aggregate storage databases.
INDEXCACHESIZE nWhere n is an integer expressed in bytes (B), kilobytes (K), megabytes (M), or gigabytes (G):
Minimum value: 1 megabyte (1 M)
Maximum value: 2 gigabytes (2 G)
Default value: 10 megabytes (10 M)
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).
This setting specifies, in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, or gigabytes, the initial size of the index cache for newly created or migrated databases on the server. The specified value takes effect for all new databases that are created after the server is started. To set or change the index cache size for an individual database, use Administration Services or MaxL. For more information, see the online help or HTML documentation for those components.
INDEXCACHESIZE 100M
sets the index cache size of all subsequently created databases at 100 megabytes.
