We are right now implementing ERP LN 6.1 FP3.

To be able to find the right sizing of all involved components of the environment I am looking for someone who has already experience in the average growthing of the database.

I do not need exact data but a rough idea if we are talking about 100 MB per month or TB.

We intend to use Oracle 10g unicode running on AIX. Maufacturing will not be used as "just" distrubution with all related processes have to be covered within the environment.

For all of you who are able to provide information on this topic it would be helpful to get it in the following form:

Hardware:
OS:
DB:
no. of users:
BaaN version:
used modules:
running since:
current DB size:
growth per month/year:

thank you very much for your help in advance.

Your list is a good start, but remember that UNICODE will inflate some tables and indexes significant (factor 4). So please take this into consideration. Further the way Finance is implemented will be a big factor for the datagrowth. Tables like tfgld495 can easily take up to 25% or more of the whole database.

Of course you need some rough figures, but is is still a difficult task to do.

Kind regards,
Dick
