Check and set the OpenVMS process resources, if necessary, for the following accounts:

Almost all OpenVMS process quotas impart a cost only when a given resource is requested and consumed. If you limit the Ingres process resources, it may function, but its performance may be impaired. Therefore, we generally recommend high resource quotas for the system administrator account. If performance is a critical issue, try setting the quota to infinity, if permitted.

The following table shows the recommended minimum process resources for the system administrator. When the install program creates the system administrator account, it automatically sets the process resources to the recommended minimums shown in the table.

Database administrators who checkpoint their own databases (as opposed to the system administrator) indirectly use OpenVMS backup. You should set UAF parameters for their accounts. For details, see the OpenVMS backup manual.
