Appendix C How to Estimate Database
Usage
SystemProvisioning, System Monitor - Performance Monitoring Services and
DeploymentManager use the database in SigmaSystemCenter.
Instructions on how to estimate the database usage are provided below.
SystemProvisioning
Estimates of disk capacities are described below according to the machine types.
 Physical machines
About 4.1 KB is used for management of a blade chassis and a blade server.
Use the following information as a guide of individual calculation.
Blade Chassis 0.8 KB / unit
Blade Server 3.3 KB / unit
E.g.1) When using blade servers
When building 20 blade chassis containing 5 blade servers in each, necessary
disk capacity is calculated to about 346 KB according to the following formula.
Necessary disk capacity 346 KB = 20 (the number of blade chassis) * 0.8 KB
+ 100 (the number of blade servers) * 3.3 KB
About 4.1 KB is used for management of a single server.
E.g.2) When using single servers
When building 5 single servers, necessary disk capacity is calculated to about 20.5
KB according to the following formula.
Necessary disk capacity 20.5 KB = 5 (the number of blade servers) * 4.1 KB.
However, if the numbers of NIC and memories to connect to the machine increase,
necessary disk capacity also increases.
