That table contains values for objects with attributes of type string (non-indexable). You must have loaded up a lot of data into attributes of that type. To reduce the size of the table you need to delete these values in these attributes or reduce the data in themDavid Lundell www.ilmBestPractices.com

Hi Kevin,A lot of data for Request objects is stored in the ObjectValueText table. A Request object is created for every operation that takes place in FIM, so you can imagine how this table size can increase dramatically over time. There will be a mechanism in an upcoming update release, which will automatically delete expired Request objects and reduce the size of this table as a result.
