Adjusting the Size and Volume of the Replication Agent System Logs

By default, the system logs produced by the Replication Agent are a fixed size. They roll over occasionally to prevent continual disk consumption.

You can increase the size of a log and adjust the number of backup files to save log data for a longer period of time. You can decrease these parameters to increase the unused space in your environment.

  1. Log in to the Replication Agent administration port, and verify that the Replication Agent instance is in Admin state:
    ra_status
  2. Set the values of these Replication Agent configuration parameters for the primary database. Increase these values to increase the size and number of backup files. Decrease these values to make more space available in your environment:
     ra_config log_backup_files, n
     ra_config log_wrap, m
