MINPARTSIZE= Parameter File Option

Specifies the minimum data partition size for an SPD Server table.

Valid in: spdsserv.parm file
Default: 128 megabytes

Syntax

MINPARTSIZE=n;

Required Argument

n

is the minimum data partition file size in megabytes. Setting a minimum data partition size ensures that large tables cannot be created with an arbitrarily small partition size. Large tables with small partition sizes create an excessive number of physical files, which increases clutter and degrades I/O performance. Here is an example:

minpartsize=256;
