# Database Configuration Parameters

The Database Configuration Parameters dialog box enables you to modify database configuration parameters. For more information about tuning database parameters, consult the database specific Infor LN Performance, Tracing and Tuning Guide for DB2 Server.

Note:

The Configuration Parameter Database Path, can be left blank. In this case the database path will be the default path specified by your database manager configuration. If you want to deviate from the default path, specify the path where you want to place the database, for example `/opt/db2`

## Check boxes

Explanation of the check boxes:

- Compress Database Tables

  The feature "DB2 Storage Optimization" must be enabled before you can select this checkbox.

  Compress Database Tables enables table and index compression on DB2 databases. The Storage Optimization feature pack is required. Ensure you enabled the licenses for the Storage Optimization Package before you start the LN installation.

- Indexes separate from Tables

  Select this checkbox when there is a specific requirement for using separate table and index spaces. Specify an index table space name. When this checkbox is not selected, the data and indices are placed in one table space.
