Hello All,
We are doing a test install of SAP Solution Manager 7.01 on Sybase ASE 15.7.
Since this is just a test setup, we started off with a lower-than-recommended hardware configuration (4 GB RAM only) due to time constraints and since we were 'assured' that we could do basic testing with this setup.
While post install performance of SolMan was decent, performance during solman_setup (setting up technical monitoring) has become appalling. We are not able to complete the configuration process at all as the SolMan configuration web application has become very unpredictable and extremely slow.
The SolMan install is centralized and on a windows 2008 box. Windows task manager shows consistent memory usage of up to 90 - 95%. We also tried reducing the total number of work processes to just 8 but that did not help much. We see in 'task manager > resource monitor' that sqlserver.exe process is taking a shareable working set close to 2 GB of RAM whereas the committed memory much less (34 MB). Please tell us about any memory optimization we can perform for SolMan / Sybase ASE in order to complete technical monitoring setup using Solman_setup. We were hoping that we could change the 'total logical memory' setting for the DB directly using DBACOCKPIT tcode (in order to reduce the max memory setting) but could not do so as the it seems to be read-only. We could not find much documentation/posts regarding memory optimization for the DB. Please help out. Thanks!
-Regards,
Arvind
