Veritas NetBackup™ OpsCenter Performance and Tuning Guide

About OpsCenter database defragmentation

Fragmentation occurs as you make changes to your database. Such changes may occur because of the deletion of data from the OpsCenter database. Following are the example scenarios when the data is deleted from the OpsCenter database:

  • When data purging is enabled in OpsCenter

    You can view the purge settings by clicking Settings > Configuration > Data Purge in the OpsCenter console. Data purging in OpsCenter is enabled by default.

  • When you delete a NetBackup master server from OpsCenter

Veritas recommends that you defragment the OpsCenter database once a month. Additionally, you should defragment the OpsCenter database, if the disk fragment count in the server.log file on Windows or dbserver.log file on UNIX shows a large number.

See Checking the disk fragment count.

See Defragmenting the OpsCenter database.
