To | Do this |
Specify the maximum number of database files FileMaker Server can open at one time | For Maximum number of files to host, enter a number or leave the default of 125. Note The memory requirements of FileMaker Server are directly related to the number of clients and open files. If you specify large values, you should also increase the amount of RAM reserved for the database cache. |
Automatically host runtime solution files | In Registered Runtime Solutions, select Allow FileMaker Server to automatically host registered runtime solutions. • To register a file type for a runtime solution, click Register and type the filename extension. Click OK. • To remove a registered file type, select the file type in the File Type list and click Remove. Click Yes to confirm. If you host runtime database solutions created by FileMaker Pro Advanced, you can enable FileMaker Server to automatically open runtime solutions when FileMaker Server starts. Runtime solutions must be stored in one of the designated locations. See Database and backup folder settings. If the runtime solutions do not have the .fmp12 filename extension, you must register their filename extensions in FileMaker Server. |
Specify the RAM reserved for database cache | For RAM reserved for database cache (MB), select the amount of memory. The maximum setting is dynamically determined based on physical RAM. The maximum setting is half the physical RAM, and the fixed maximum setting is 1 TB. Increasing the RAM reserved for the database cache can speed up overall performance for a correctly designed database, especially if your server hosts large files or a large number of clients or files. |
