Overview → Partitioning Scheme → Distribution Plan → Grid Creation

Omnidex Grids are straightforward to create. Each grid node is a separate Omnidex environment, with an environment file, indexes and data. For convenience, there are methods to share a single Omnidex environment file across multiple nodes. There are also methods to share data files across multiple nodes.

Before creating an Omnidex Grid, you must first have a partitioning scheme and a distribution plan. These will be needed during the steps of creating an Omnidex Grid.

There are several ways to create Omnidex Grids:

• To create an Omnidex Grid in an interactive tool, use the Omnidex Administrator.
• To create an Omnidex Grid with scripts, use Omnidex SQL statements such as CREATE ENVIRONMENT, CREATE DATABASE and CREATE TABLE.
