Database Sizing Estimator (OperationsManager, OperationsManagerDW & OperationsManagerAC)
The attached spreadsheet is not a precise sizing instrument but a very accurate estimator. It will put you in the ball park with about a +5 to 7% surplus under NORMAL OPERATING conditions. The math behind the spreadsheet was worked out by Kerrie Meyler, https://ops-mgr.spaces.live.com/ Please check out her site with updated information pertaining to ACS too.

Yes. Unfortunatley I have not been able to do so nativley, I use MP Studio form SIlect software. However, a trusty hyper-v environment with some VMs will let you quickly calculate this. Build out the management group and deploy 1 agents. Measure I/O. Drop in the MP in question. Measure. Of course you need to factor in the agent's profile, which base MPs is it using and what custom ones appply. It is tedious but it is also accurate since the difference between lab and production is speed, not rate.Anonymous

Walter, Is there a way to estimate the number of entries (load) a custom MP or what impact the overrides will have on the performance of the Ops DB and Ops DW? Thanks, Bryan
