Default size for the RSSD log device is too small

[CR #420216] The rs_init default RSSD log device size of 16MB is too small when you are using an Adaptive Server 15.0 for the RSSD database. The rs_init process fills the RSSD log device before the RSSD is created, and rs_init reports the following message from the Adaptive Server hosting the RSSD:

SQL Server message: msg 7415, level 10, state 1 "The
transaction log in database RSSD Database is almost
full.  Your transaction is being suspended until space
is made available in the log."

Workaround: If this situation occurs, you must expand the RSSD log device before rs_init can continue. Use:

  1. 1> disk resize name='RSSD log device', size = '25M'
    2> go
    
  2. 1> alter database RSSD Database log on RSSD log device = '25M'
    2> go
    

After the additional log space is provided, rs_init completes the initialization of the RSSD and Replication Server will function correctly. Avoid this problem by creating the RSSD log device with a size of 25MB or larger.
