Threshold


The Threshold parameter specifies the amount of space (in bytes) allocated for the log file. If you set the Overlap parameter to Yes, the log entries are overwritten from the top of the file when the log size reaches the threshold value.

Valid values

Default value

Usage

Specify the number of bytes, greater than or equal to zero, that can be allocated for the log file. If you specify zero, the size of the log file is unlimited.

When you specify the Threshold parameter, consider the resources available on the system where the apply request runs. If you anticipate a large number of log entries for the apply request, consider setting a reasonable size for the log file (1,000,000 bytes, for example). Then, use the Overlap parameter to guarantee that log processing continues until the apply request ends. This practice allows you to log the problems that lead to a failure but conserves the system resources during apply processing.
