Making changes to partition sizes and protocols
Help | Content Gateway | Version 8.1.x
After you have configured your cache partitions based on protocol, you can make changes to the configuration at any time. Before making changes, note the following:
*
You must stop Content Gateway before you change the cache partition size and protocol assignment.
*
When you increase the size of a partition, the contents of the partition are not deleted. However, when you reduce the size of a partition, the contents of the partition are deleted.
*
When you change the partition number, the partition is deleted and then re-created, even if the size and protocol type remain the same.
*
When you add new disks to your Content Gateway node, the partition sizes specified in percentages increase proportionately.
*
A lot of changes to the partition sizes might result in disk fragmentation, which affects performance and hit rate. It is recommended that you clear the cache (see Clearing the cache) before making many changes to cache partition sizes.
