As the scale of operations increases, the amount of data in your databases increases as well. However, even if a database becomes larger than your original estimate, with HiRDB, you can subsequently add, expand, or move the database. With HiRDB/Parallel Server, you can also add a server machine and add or move a database onto the new server machine.

HiRDB provides the following functions to support increases in the amount of data in your databases:

• Adding RDAREAs
• Expanding RDAREAs
• RDAREA automatic extension
• Moving RDAREAs (HiRDB/Parallel Server only)
