Gateway 2 - Databases https://resources.itrsgroup.com/docs/geneos/current/Gateway/databases/databases.html
2.3 Sizing It is difficult to provide an accurate figure for the size of the database required as database sizing is affected by so many variables: - The number of metrics stored and the interval at which these are stored - This itself is a function of the number of managed entities monitored, plug-ins used, etc. - The volatility of the metrics - Housekeeping / archiving strategy
A minimal size for a database in Mbytes can be calculated using the following formula:- Size = Number of Managed Entities * Number of months data to be stored * 10
In practice the size of the database required can be minimised by - Keeping only a limited number of days of data - Carefully considering what data is logged and only logging data which has a known use - Specifying the interval at which items are logged and using margins
