XMA: How to change the size of the database from the installation defaults before running IWIZARD

XMA: How to change the size of the database from the installation defaults before running IWIZARD

The Auto-install procedure that comes with HP Security Bundle will direct the customer to:

1. DUP $SYSTEM.ZXYPROMA.* to <stage-area>.*
2. VOLUME to <stage-area>
3. OBEY IXYBIN
4. RUN IWIZARD

By default, XMA will size the database to use a maximum of 80% of the $VOLUME selected by the user. To change the percentage used of the drive selected by the user, the ITACLEXT file must be changed  before executing Step 4 (running IWIZARD).

Example:

The following line in the ITACLEXT file (located in the staging area) specifies the default maximum size of 80% of available space:

<stage-area.ITACLEXT:#set nums:free_space [compute(nums:free_space*8)/10]


To change maximum size to 60% of the available space on the selected drive, make the following change:

<stage-area.ITACLEXT:#set nums:free_space [compute(nums:free_space*6)/10]

Only whole numbers may be used in this computation or the script will generate an error.
