Abstract
The apparatus for dynamically allocating resources used in a meta-data repository includes a tracking module to track resources allocated to a meta-data repository, the meta-data repository comprising a repository that stores meta-data related to a computer system. An adjustment evaluation module evaluates repository usage of the resources allocated to the meta-data repository and ascertains whether a resource adjustment is desirable. An adjustment determination module determines desirable adjustments to the resources available to the meta-data repository. An allocation module adjusts resources allocated to the meta-data repository in accordance with the adjustment determination module. Adjusting resources includes changing a number of strings allocated to handle concurrent meta-data repository I/O requests.
