Education

  1. Secure data erase on PureData for Analytics systems
    How do I securely erase data from my PureData for Analytics system and will I get a certificate for that?
  2. Using zonemap on createxid to improve differential backup performance
    PDA system maintains zonemap on createxid column. But due to the way differential/cumulative nzbackup query is written, it cannot use zonemap and goes for full table scan. This results in slower backup performance. If differential/cumulative backup query uses zonemap, it will give performance improvement as only some extents will be scanned instead of entire table.
  3. PureData for Analytics - nzmicrodiskrepair command
    What is the nzmicrodiskrepair command and how do I use it?
