Using the System Reporter Sizing Spreadsheet

3PAR System Reporter User’s Guide

System Reporter 2.8

To use the System Reporter Sizing Spreadsheet:

1

Click on the appropriate type of database that you are using for System Reporter at your

site.

You will notice that SQlite only supports one InServ Storage Server for use with System

Reporter. Please consider another database if you plan on using System Reporter to

monitor more than a single InServ Storage Server.

2

Modify the Sampling Parameters in red to reflect the approximate values for your

installation.

The values for Table Row Sizes in blue are approximate table row sizes (bytes) based on

observations derived by 3PAR during testing System Reporter instances and includes some

extra space to accommodate typical inventory tables, indexes, etc.

3

Observe the requirements that are shown in the yellow cells to determine the suggested

allocation of system resources for your System Reporter server or database server.

NOTE: The database server should have roughly the same amount of memory and

CPU cores as the System Reporter server.
