(4) System resources required for using Store 2.0 as the Store database for PFM - Agent or PFM - RM

The following table describes the additional system resources required when using the Store 2.0 functionality supported from version 08-11 of PFM - Base and PFM - Manager.

System resources Parameter Estimate (additional requirement)
File system FILE-MAX Number of files opened by the Store service#

#
For details on how to estimate the number of files opened by the Store service, see C.4(1)(d) Number of files opened by the Store service. You can use the ulimit command to change the maximum number of files that can be opened at one time. If the estimate for the kernel parameters exceeds the upper limit for the system, use the ulimit command to re-specify a larger value.
