22.4.1 Estimating the number of ports that a unit will use

The following shows the target number of ports that a HiRDB unit will use:

Organization of this subsection
(1) HiRDB single server configuration
(2) HiRDB parallel server configuration

(1) HiRDB single server configuration

Formula
value of pd_max_users [Figure] 4 + 1,000

(2) HiRDB parallel server configuration

With a multi-front-end server configuration, decide the values for f and F for each front-end server, which will become the total number of ports. Use the following formula to calculate the target number of port numbers for each front-end server.

Formula
{b [Figure] [k [Figure] (B + F) + 1]
+ f [Figure] (k [Figure] B + D + 2) + d [Figure] (F + 1)}
[Figure] value of pd_max_users + 1,000

b: Number of back-end servers inside the unit

B: Number of back-end servers outside the unit

f: Number of front-end servers inside the unit
Each front-end server counts as either 1 or 0:
If the front-end server is inside the unit: 1
If the front-end server is outside the unit: 0

F: Number of front-end servers outside the unit
Each front-end server counts as either 1 or 0:
If the front-end server is inside the unit: 1
If the front-end server is outside the unit: 0

d: Number of dictionary servers inside the unit

D: Number of dictionary servers outside the unit
