-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear list users, I'm trying to get my DB_CONFIG file sorted out and I'm getting confused. If I follow the documentation available on zytrax.com (http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch6/bdb.html#db-config), if I have a DB_CONFIG file it should contain a txn_checkpoint directive instead of the checkpoint directive in slapd.conf file which indeed does nothing no matter if I change it or not. But if I put a txn_checkpoint in the DB_CONFIG file I get a "unrecognized name-value pair: txn_checkpoint" error and everything dies miserably. So, as Howard suggests (http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200605/msg00091.html), I set off on a quest to read the BerkeleyDB documentation. I'm finding reading it not very useful for several reasons. Firstly txn_checkpoint directive sometimes occurs (http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/programmer_reference/upgrade_3_1_txn_check.html so at least version 3.1, and up?, should understand txn_checkpoint) and sometimes not (http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/api_reference/C/env.html). Secondly, there is scarce, if any, reference to the versions of BDB concerned in the documentation I have found and now I have spent an awful amount time (well, ten minutes maybe) trying to find out exactly which version of BDB I have I'd like to make some intelligent use of that information if at all possible. Well, I'm lost. The only thing I've found is a gigabyte of bdb logs created when I populate my directory wich are not removed by dbconfig set_flags DB_LOG_AUTOREMOVE, and even more as my directory lives it life (several gigabytes after a week or two). So I'd like to reduce their volume if at all possible rather than having to regularly remove them using slapd_db_archive manually. So, what's the story with BDB transaction checkpoint logs? How can I get this mess sorted out? I'm using Openldap 2.3.43-3.el5 with BDB 4.3.29 on CentOS 5.3. Thanks.
