Modifying and Regenerating Reference Architectures

You can modify the properties generated by the Advisor wizard (for example to specify different hardware profiles for reader and writer nodes), but after having done so, you should regenerate the architecture to recalculate the other parameters and verify that your architecture is still valid.

1. Modify any of the generated properties on the reference architecture property sheet (see Reference Architecture Properties), and then click OK to save your changes.

   For example, you could change the number of years for which you want to estimate growth, change the hardware profile for the coordinator, writer, or reader, or modify your query or loading requirements.

   Note: If you change the number of years for which you want to estimate growth, you must click the Estimate button to recalculate the database size before regenerating.
2. Right-click the reference architecture in the Browser or diagram and select Sybase IQ Reference Architecture > Regenerate
   A model check is performed to ensure that the architecture is still valid and, if this is the case, it is regenerated.
