Enlarging the storage space (adding volumes)

You can add another volume to MaxDB if the MultimediaDatabase requires more
space, e.g. if you wish to store event data for a longer period of time. The default
MaxDB size is 4 GB.
This enlargement of storage space does not affect the MultimediaDatabase.
Enlarging MaxDB storage space

enlargement of the MultimediaDatabase (minimum: 512 MB, maximum:
4000 MB).
2. Click on Add new volume.
Additional storage space is immediately available on DISK000X in the MaxDB
installation directory.

For technical reasons, the size of MaxDB cannot be reduced.
You can add a maximum of four volumes to MaxDB.
You will obtain an estimated duration (in days) about how long the storage space of
the MaxDB will last at the current alarm rate by clicking on Refresh.

normal load with respect to alarm frequency.

Setting the MaxDB cache size

If many events occur and load times increase because of this, increase the cache
size of MaxDB.
However, this value should be selected with care. It is of no use to increase the
cache size if the actual free main memory available on this PC is not sufficient.
The memory reserved for MaxDB is can be displayed by clicking on Current cache

management database.
