The logsize is set to 10 MB, it creates a 10 MB log file every 2 - 3
minutes (it grows so fast, like the movie "Evolution" :-)), I ran the
db_archive -d 10 hours ago when the disk was full, and I have run the
db_archive -d now as the disk is full again despite the server is not too
busy. Why doesn't the slapd do it automatically? Apart that issue, the ldap
is running very well. I really want to figure out what is going on, but if
I cannot find a solution, I have no choice but run a cron job to call
db_archive -d every 8 hours. I guess that should not cause ldap any side
effect, right?
Thank you very much.
