The following tabs of the Database Properties window apply to aggregate and block storage databases:

  • General—Set options for startup, calculations, and minimum permissions.

  • Dimensions—View information about dimensions.

  • Statistics—View information about data blocks, hit ratios, and read/write operations.

  • Modifications—View a list of operations performed against the database.

The following tabs of the Database Properties window apply only to block storage databases:

  • Caches—Size Essbase caches and specify cache-related settings.

  • Transactions—Specify when and how Essbase writes data to disk.

  • Storage—Specify a data compression method and set multiple-disk storage parameters for data.
