We currently have an EA repository that is 800MB in size. I’ve implemented security and locked all the packages and elements to specific groups and the repository grows to about 4GB. :-/. Is this amount of size increase normal when implementing security locks? I'd like to hear from others who have encountered the same and/or have other ideas and suggestions
Our EA is running on an SQL*Server DB.

Sorry, but I don't know about the file size issue.

How has your performance been?

Hi "Midnight",
After the DB size reached 4GB, I started getting errors because our max DB size is currently 4GB. So I rolled back everything. At this stage, I can't comment on performance.

I wouldn't expect a large increase in size. You didn't enable auditing at the same time did you?

Hi Simon M
It might just be the auditing that is taking up so much space. I'm still investigating. Thanks.

If you did have auditing enabled I would say this is what caused the growth in data.

Yes, I can confirm that it was the auditing that caused the severe growth. I switched off the auditing and managed to implement security locks on all my packages. There was no growth in the database size.

Which moves us forward in understanding what is happening, but does not solve your problem...
