3.4.1.6
This attribute specifies circular logging for the transaction log files. If this attribute is switched off, old transaction log files are not removed and are kept renamed as old log transaction files. Turning circular logging off can severely degrade server performance and, as such, should only be modified with the guidance of HP Technical Support or HP Professional Services.

3.4.1.8
This attribute sets whether database transaction log entries are immediately written to the disk. The database transaction log contains a sequential listing of all recent database operations and is used for database recovery only. With durable transactions enabled, every directory change will always be physically recorded in the log file and, therefore, able to be recovered in the event of a system failure. However, the durable transactions feature may also slow the performance of the Directory Server. When durable transactions is disabled, all transactions are logically written to the database transaction log but may not be physically written to disk immediately. If there were a system failure before a directory change was physically written to disk, that change would not be recoverable. The
This attribute is provided only for system modification/diagnostics and should be changed only with the guidance of HP Technical Support or HP Professional Services. Inconsistent settings of this attribute and other configuration attributes may cause the Directory Server to be unstable.
