Options for Initializing the Regional Database

This topic describes options for initializing the regional database.

Running Srvrinit in Parallel to Improving Performance

If the Siebel Server includes multiple CPUs and disk arrays, then you can run srvrinit in parallel to significantly improve performance.

Reducing the Rollback Segment

To reduce the size of the rollback segment that srvrinit requires, you can reduce the following extract parameter for the regional database:

Maximum data file size (DatFileSize)

The srvrinit task sends commits for each file. The smaller the file, the smaller the rollback segment. For more information, see Parameters of the Database Extract Server Component.

Reinitializing a Regional Node

If you reinitialize a regional node with remote clients, then you must verify that the remote clients who synchronized with this node can reinitialize without having to delete their local databases.
