This chapter discusses some basic issues that determine how you allocate and use disk resources with Adaptive Server.
Many Adaptive Server defaults are set to reasonable values for aspects of storage management, such as where databases, tables, and indexes are placed and how much space is allocated for each one. Responsibility for storage allocation and management is often centralized, and usually, the System Administrator has ultimate control over the allocation of disk resources to Adaptive Server and the physical placement of databases, tables, and indexes on those resources.
