Red Hat Directory Server 8.0 Configuration, Command, and File Reference

When setting a maximum disk space, consider the total number of log files that can be created
due to log file rotation. Also, remember that there are three different log files (access log, audit
log, and error log) maintained by the Directory Server, each of which consumes disk space.
Compare these considerations to the total amount of disk space for the access log.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=config
Valid Range -1 | 1 to the maximum 32 bit integer value
(2147483647), where a value of -1 means
that the disk space allowed to the access log
is unlimited in size.
Default Value 500
Syntax Integer
Example nsslapd-accesslog-logmaxdiskspace: 200
3.1.9. nsslapd-accesslog-logminfreediskspace (Access Log
Minimum Free Disk Space)
This attribute sets the minimum allowed free disk space in megabytes. When the amount of free
disk space falls below the value specified on this attribute, the oldest access logs are deleted
until enough disk space is freed to satisfy this attribute.
Parameter Description
Entry DN cn=config
Valid Range 1 to the maximum 32 bit integer value
(2147483647)
Default Value 5
Syntax Integer
Example nsslapd-accesslog-logminfreediskspace: 4
3.1.10. nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsync-enabled (Access Log
Rotation Sync Enabled)
This attribute sets whether access log rotation is to be synchronized with a particular time of the
day. Synchronizing log rotation this way can generate log files at a specified time during a day,
such as midnight to midnight every day. This makes analysis of the log files much easier
because they then map directly to the calendar.
For access log rotation to be synchronized with time-of-day, this attribute must be enabled with
the nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsynchour and
nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsyncmin attribute values set to the hour and minute of the
day for rotating log files.
