Adaptive Server Enterprise RSSD Device Information

Complete the "RSSD Device Information" section of the worksheet if you want rs_init to create the RSSD and you selected Yes for “Create RSSD".

However, if you do not want rs_init to create the RSSD, skip this section and go to “Disk partition information” to complete its corresponding section in the worksheet.

These are the worksheet fields:

Field Description
Size of the RSSD database The size, in megabytes, of the data portion.
RSSD device name (Required) The name of the Adaptive Server logical device where you want to create the RSSD. If the device already exists, it must have enough space available to create the new database.
Create the RSSD device (Required) Select Yes if you want rs_init to create the RSSD data device on the Adaptive Server database device.

Select No if the RSSD data device already exists, or if you will create it before you run rs_init.

RSSD device physical name If you want rs_init to create the RSSD device, enter the physical device name for the database device on which you want to store the RSSD.

If you do not want rs_init to create the RSSD data device, leave this field blank.

RSSD device size If you want rs_init to create the RSSD device, enter the capacity, in megabytes, of the physical device. The device size must be at least the size you specified for the data portion of the RSSD database.

If you do not want rs_init to create the RSSD device, leave this entry blank.

Size of the RSSD log The size, in megabytes, for the RSSD database log.
Note: Sybase recommends that you store the RSSD log on a device other than the master device, and on a different device from the RSSD data.
RSSD log device name (Required) The logical name for the device you want rs_init to use for the RSSD log.
Create the RSSD log device (Required) Select Yes if you want rs_init to create the RSSD log device in Adaptive Server.

Select No if the device already exists or if you will create it before you run rs_init.

RSSD log device physical name If you want rs_init to create the RSSD log device, enter the physical device name for the device.

If you do not want rs_init to create the RSSD log device, or if you are using a single device for both the RSSD and its log (this is not recommended), leave this field blank.

RSSD log device size If you want rs_init to create the RSSD log device, enter the capacity, in megabytes, of the physical device. The device size must be at least the size you specified for the RSSD log.

If you do not want rs_init to create the RSSD log device, or if you are using a single device for both the RSSD and its log (this is not recommended), leave this field blank.
