In addition, the configured log buffer size must be larger than the log file size. (The logging subsystem divides memory configured for in-memory log records into "files", as database environments configured for in-memory log records may exchange log records with other members of a replication group, and those members may be configured to store log records on-disk.) When choosing log buffer and file sizes for in-memory logs, applications should ensure the in-memory log buffer size is large enough that no transaction will ever span the entire buffer, and avoid a state where the in-memory buffer is full and no space can be freed because a transaction that started in the first log "file" is still active.</p> <p>See <a href="../../db46-devel-4.6.21/ref/log/limits.html">Log File Limits</a> for more information.</p> <p>The database environment's log file size may also be configured using the environment's <b>DB_CONFIG</b> file. The syntax of the entry in that file is a single line with the string "set_lg_max", one or more whitespace characters, and the size in bytes.
