<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi Stan,</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; How do the extended samples relate 
to what goes in the database?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Oh, and where are they 
located?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; The SAM files are located in /opt/fox/hstorian/sample.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; There is a very good write up in the Historian manual in the 
overview section on the relationship between the many parts of the Historian.&nbsp; 
See section 2 in the manual B0193BL.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I don't think we are doing this. 
It's not the default </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; install to use</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; anything but raw partitons, 
correct?</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&gt; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; And thnaks for the info.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; By default you get a tiny raw partition for the 
Historian.&nbsp; You can make this initial raw partition much larger if you do it at 
the time of system installation, but afterwards it is too late.&nbsp; So Informix can 
use a part of the filesystem as &quot;simulated&quot; raw space to give you more room 
to store reduction data and other neat stuff in the Informix table spaces.&nbsp; 
</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; You get this additional room by &quot;cooking&quot; a bit of 
the filesystem area so it can be used along with the initial raw space.&nbsp; (hey I 
didn't think up these terms :-)</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp; See section 13 of the Historian manual B0193BL for a very brief 
mention of the cooking procedure.&nbsp; There is a much better write up in the Helpful 
Hints number HH528.</FONT></P>
<BR>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Good Luck,</FONT>
