2.3.1.24 nsslapd-auditlog-logmaxdiskspace (Audit log maximum disk space)

This attribute sets the maximum amount of disk space in megabytes that the audit logs are allowed to consume. If this value is exceeded, the oldest audit log is deleted.

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 with the total amount of disk space for the audit log.

Parameter

disk space allowed to the audit log is unlimited in size.

Default Value

500

Syntax

Integer
