Note

If you are using any Manager version prior to 11.1 Update 5 release, you need to manually perform the weekly offline database tuning using dbadmin.bat or dbtuning.bat to tune iv_packetlog table. The offline tuning of the database can be performed irrespective of the table size. For more information on tuning the database using dbadmin.bat, refer to Using the database admin tool and Tune your database using dbadmin.bat.
