2.3.1.8. nsslapd-accesslog-logmaxdiskspace (Access Log Maximum Disk Space)
This attribute specifies the maximum amount of disk space in megabytes that the access logs are
allowed to consume. If this value is exceeded, the oldest access 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
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
-1
Syntax
Integer
Example
nsslapd-accesslog-logmaxdiskspace: 100000
2.3.1.9. 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 | 1 to the maximum 32 bit integer value
(2147483647)
Default Value
-1
Syntax
Integer
Example
nsslapd-accesslog-logminfreediskspace: -1
2.3.1.10. 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.
For example, to rotate access log files every day at midnight, enable this attribute by setting its value to
on, and then set the values of the nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsynchour and nsslapd-
accesslog-logrotationsyncmin attributes to 0.
Parameter

nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsync-enabled: on
2.3.1.11. nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsynchour (Access Log Rotation Sync Hour)
This attribute sets the hour of the day for rotating access logs. This attribute must be used in
conjunction with nsslapd-accesslog-logrotationsync-enabled and nsslapd-accesslog-
logrotationsyncmin attributes.
