(SM-2508) BLOB Storage (Primary Database)

BLOB storage is a binary connector for the primary database of your system. 

Creating BLOB Storages in Kyano Storage Management 

Proceed as follows to create a BLOB storage: 

  1. Start transaction /DVD/SM_SETUP. 

  2. Click Create to create a new storage. 

  3. Enter a Storage ID. 

  4. In the Storage type field, enter BLOB. 

  5. Click Confirm. 

  6. Specify the required parameters: 

    • Storage ID: Name of the storage. 

    • Storage type: Type of storage. Use the storage type BLOB for BLOB storages. 

    • Blob size (Kbytes): Splits the data into portions according to the Blob size during the data transfer. Every part with binary data will be uploaded to the primary database and stored as a separate entry in the cluster table. 

    • Data class: Specifies the physical area (tablespace) of the database in which a database table is created. 

    • Database prefix: Specifies the database prefix. The name of the cluster table that is generated on the storage contains a database prefix and a number with 10 digits. 

    • Compute hash: Calculates the hash of the data before and after the transfer. 

    • Generate DB indexes: Creates a default index on the cluster table. This improves the performance of reading data but can worsen the performance of writing data. 

    • Enable update: Support for the direct update statements.
