You can also specify the expansion space allocated for the backend database file and transaction log associated with the selected database. The file name, location, and filegroup are chosen for you by the Web Data Administrator. The "Automatically grow file" option specifies that data files automatically increase in size by the amount indicated in the following options.
In megabytes
Specify the number of megabytes by which to grow the data files.
By percent
