Disabling Database Optimization

Beginning in version 22.12, Orchid Core VMS now automatically optimizes the database during upgrade installations. This default optimization process may be disabled by an Administrator by including the appropriate command as part of the installation.

In Windows

If you have decided to disable the optimization process during installation, you will need to run the installation from the command prompt.

1. Click the Windows Start icon in the lower-left corner of the screen.
2. Type “cmd” or “command”.
3. The Command Prompt app should appear in the list at the top-left corner of the screen.
4. Right-click on that and select Run as administrator.
5. If the system asks: Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?, click Yes.
6. Now you will need to enter a modified version of the installation command. It should look something like this:
   ipc-orchid_22.12.0.exe /OptimizeDB=false
   (Where 22.12.0.exe represents the Orchid version you are installing.)

Please refer back to the Windows installation for additional details.

In Linux

If you have decided to disable the optimization process during installation, you will need to run the installation from the command line.

1. To disable optimization, enter a modified version of the installation command. It should look something like this:
   sudo SKIP_DB_OPTIMIZE=1 yum install ./ipc-orchid_22.12.0.rpm
   (Where 22.12.0.rpm represents the Orchid version you are installing.)
   

Please refer back to the appropriate Linux installation section for additional details.
