Hi All,
ILM landed on my desk, the demand is to implement activation of ILM with a certified ILM Storage at the back for HCM data.
We plan only to use ILM Retention, so far Warehouse is not in scope.
One of the aspects is sizing, what kind of sizing ?
. When we start ILM running, what impact will triggering and executing archiving have on the HCM system, will the regular activity
put any load onto the system and how much ?
. The ILM Storage, how much data will we be storing and what kind of growth do we expect ?
. Based upon the answers to the two questions above we can decide if we need to add resources CPU/RAM/DISK to the respective
pieces of the puzzle.
I have hunted documentation, read everything on the https://service.sap.com/ilm and noticed how old the documentation is there, what is titled a Sizing guide is from 2011.
Question, does any such good guidance exist from SAP on resources/sizing which will be needed on the host system (where archiving will be executed) and on the ILM Storage ?
If not, I will answer this thread with everything useful that I find.
Best regards,
Andy.
