Updating the Recovery Log Space Trigger
To define settings for the recovery
log trigger, first complete the following fields and then
click Finish, or click Cancel
to end the task. The trigger determines when and how the server deals
with space shortages in the recovery log.
Log Full Percentage
Enter the percentage that specifies when the server automatically
allocates more space for your recovery log.
- Specify an integer from 0 to 99.
- A value of zero (0) disables the space trigger.
- The default is 80.
Log Space Expansion Percentage
Enter the percentage by which the server expands the size of the recovery log.
- Specify an integer from 0 to 200.
- The recovery log requires a minimum value of 8MB
(9MB file with processing space).
- Expansions are in units of 5MB.
- A value of zero (0) disables expansion.
- The default is 20.
Log Expansion Prefix
Enter the prefix that the server will use in creating files to
expand the recovery log. The log expansion prefix is a valid
directory path meeting the following criteria:
- The maximum length is 250 characters for an AIX, HP-UX,
or Sun Solaris server.
- The maximum length is 200 characters for a Windows server.
- The prefix name may include one or more directory
separator characters.
The server does not check the prefix name for validity. If
you specify an incorrect prefix, automatic expansion can
fail.
Note: This option is not valid for MVS
or VM.
Log Maximum Size (Megabytes)
Enter an integer that specifies the maximum size of the
recovery log.
- Specify an integer from 5 to 13000.
- Specifying a value of zero (0) or omitting this parameter
disables checking for maximum size.
- The default is 0.
