3.3. Special setup for IBM DB2 database

If you want to use an IBM DB2 database as the underlying data source for Business Central, you will need to increase the page size for the database. The default page size of 4 kB is not sufficient for the Dashbuilder table columns size.
When creating the database, force the page size to 16384 as in the example below:

Example 3.1. Adjusting page size

CREATE DATABASE dashb PAGESIZE 16384
This increase in page size for the underlying database must be performed before the BPM Suite has been run for the first time.
