Configure or unconfigure changelog

The change log database is used to record changes to the schema and directory entries. The change log records all update operations: add, delete, modify, and modrdn. You can enable or disable the change log.

The server must be stopped before you configure or unconfigure the change log.

  1. To record changes in the change log, select the Enable change log database check box.

    To stop recording changes in the change log, clear the Enable change log database check box.

  2. If you selected the Enable change log database check box:
    1. In the Maximum number of log entries box, click Unlimited if you want an unlimited number of entries in the change log. If you want to limit the number of entries, click Entries and type the maximum number of entries you want recorded. (The default is 1,000,000 entries.)
    2. In the Maximum age box, click Unlimited if you want entries to remain in the change log indefinitely, or click Age and type the number of days and hours for which you want each entry to be kept. (The default is Unlimited.)
  3. Click Update.
