AdministeringIn addition to administering the database server, you can tune performance, replicate data, and archive data.
System administrationThese topics contain concepts, procedures, and reference information for database and database server administrators to use for managing and tuning HCL OneDB™ database servers.
Administrator's GuideThe HCL OneDB™ Administrator's Guide provides the information required to administer HCL OneDB™.
Disk, memory, and process management
Shared memoryThese topics describe the content of database server shared memory, the factors that determine the sizes of shared-memory areas, and how data moves into and out of shared memory.
Buffer large-object dataSimple large objects (TEXT or BYTE data) can be stored in either dbspaces or blobspaces. Smart large objects (CLOB or BLOB data) are stored only in sbspaces.
Write simple large objectsThe database server writes simple large objects to disk pages in a dbspace in the same way that it writes any other data type.
Creation of simple large objectsWhen simple-large-object data is written to disk, the row to which it belongs might not exist yet.

Creation of simple large objects

When simple-large-object data is written to disk, the row to which it belongs might not exist yet.

During an insert, for example, the simple large object is transferred before the rest of the row data. After the simple large object is stored, the data row is created with a 56-byte descriptor that points to its location. For a description of how simple large objects are stored physically, see the structure of a dbspace blobpage in the disk storage and structure chapter of the HCL OneDB™ Administrator's Reference.
