Stopping and Starting a Database
An x100 process for a VectorH database will start upon the first user connection and will remain running until either the x100 process is stopped or the instance is stopped.
If performing a benchmark, you may want to connect to the database at least once before running a test to ensure that x100 startup times are not included in the query time, giving a false impression of “cold-cache” query times. The query select * from <table> where 1=2 can be used to ensure full start up without caching any data.
To stop a running x100 process for a database, either stop the instance with ingstop or connect to the database and issue the command call vectorwise(terminate).
