Description

ExtendedDatabaseSize allows databases to expand beyond their default size limits (approximately 32TB for 8KB blocks, 64TB for 16KB blocks, 128TB for 32KB blocks, and 256TB for 64KB blocks). When ExtendedDatabaseSize is enabled, databases become eligible to use the extended format when required, allowing them to expand beyond the default size limits.

Before enabling this feature, read Extended Database Size for all considerations and recommended preparation steps.

Changing This Parameter

Instead of using the Management Portal, you can use the Config.MiscellanousOpens in a new tab class (as described in the class reference) or by editing the CPF with a text editor.
