Allbase has been in use at my client's site for the longest time. One of my
client's suppliers is Lee of Leetech out in California. Lee and some of his
people were part of the HP project which created Allbase and he is obviously
quite knowledgable. The file declarations in this Allbase database are as
follows:

START DBE 'XXXDBE' MULTI NEW
   BUFFER = (4096, 256),
   TRANSACTION = 128,
   RUN BLOCK = 512,
   CHECKPOINT AUDIT ELEMENTS,
   DATA AUDIT ELEMENTS,
   DBEFILE0 DBEFILE DBEFILE0
      WITH PAGES = 150,
      NAME = 'DBEFILE0',
   LOG DBEFILE DBELOG1
      WITH PAGES = 50000,
      NAME = 'DBELOG1.XXXSDATA.DEV';

CREATE DBEFILESET COMSFILESET1;
REVOKE SECTIONSPACE ON DBEFILESET COMSFILESET1 FROM PUBLIC;
REVOKE TABLESPACE ON DBEFILESET COMSFILESET1 FROM PUBLIC;

CREATE DBEFILE COMSF1
   WITH PAGES = 100,
   NAME = 'COMSF1',
   INCREMENT = 100,
   MAXPAGES = 50000,
   TYPE = MIXED;

ADD DBEFILE COMSF1 TO DBEFILESET COMSFILESET1;


I hope this helps you.
