Enables the System Administrator to specify the domain data settings and indexes on a database server machine prior to starting the domain initialization process on SQL Server.
Domain — Displays the name that you specified in the Initialize dialog box.
Domain data
Domain file name — Accept the displayed value or type another unique domain file name. The name must be unique within the Smart Instrumentation database.
Datafile name and path — Accept the displayed value or type the full path and name of the domain file. The default file extension is .mdf. You can change the file extension as you require.
Initial size (MB) — Accept the displayed size of the domain file. The displayed size is 40 MB. The SQL Server Auto-extend feature automatically increases the size of this file if needed.
Filegroup — Accept the displayed name or type another unique filegroup name. The name must be unique within the Smart Instrumentation database. You cannot use an existing filegroup when initializing a domain, but you can add additional domain files to this filegroup from the Administration module.
Datafile folder path
Type the required folder path or accept the displayed default. If you change the folder path in this box, the software automatically updates the datafile name and path settings specified for the domain and index data.
Index data
Index file name — Accept the displayed name or type another unique index file name. The name must be unique within the Smart Instrumentation database. For example, if you have six domains in one database, you must have six different index file names.
Datafile name and path — Accept the displayed value or type the full path and name of the domain file. The default file extension is .mdf. You can change the file extension as you require.
Initial size (MB) — Accept the displayed size of the index file. The displayed size is 20 MB. The SQL Server Auto-extend feature automatically increases the size of this file if needed.
Filegroup — Accept the displayed name or type another unique filegroup name. The name must be unique within the Smart Instrumentation database. You cannot use an existing filegroup when initializing a domain, but you can add additional domain files to this filegroup from the Administration module.
