The STRMBUFFERS configuration parameter
The STRMBUFFERS parameter sets the number of server-stream buffers per device. The onpload utility sends data to the database server through a server stream. The server stream is a set of shared-memory buffers. The memory for the server-stream buffer is allocated from the memory allocated for the database server.
Each device has a separate server stream with STRMBUFFERS buffers.
Thus the total number of stream buffers is as follows:
STRMBUFFERS * numdevices- Default value
- Maximum of (4,2*CONVERTTHREADS)
- Recommended value
- Maximum of (4,2*CONVERTTHREADS)
- Range of values
- Integer > 4
