A table object is allocated for each table and for each unique hash index in the cluster. This
parameter sets a suggested maximum number of table objects for the cluster as a whole; like
MaxNoOfAttributes
A known issue in MySQL Cluster in MySQL 5.0 is that this parameter is occasionally treated as a
hard limit for certain operations. This can lead to confusion when it is sometimes possible (or not
possible, depending on the circumstances) to create more than

For each attribute that has a
These tables also must be taken into account when defining the total number of tables.
The default value of this parameter is 128. The minimum is 8 and the maximum is 20320. (This is a
change from MySQL 4.1.) Each table object consumes approximately 20KB per node.

MaxNoOfOrderedIndexes
Effective Version

Restart Type: N
For each ordered index in the cluster, an object is allocated describing what is being indexed and
its storage segments. By default, each index so defined also defines an ordered index. Each unique
index and primary key has both an ordered index and a hash index.
sets the total number of hash indexes that can be in use in the system at any one time.
The default value of this parameter is 128. Each hash index object consumes approximately 10KB of
data per node.
