Default value of LOGFILSIZ must be increased

If you are adding a large group to your directory, you must modify the LOGFILSIZ parameter of your DB2® database.

Consider the following scenario: You might be adding a large group, for example, more than 50,000 members, to your directory. You migrated your database from a previous release. In this case, you must modify the LOGFILSIZ parameter of your DB2 database to be at least 2000. On migrated databases, this value might currently be set to 750 or 1000.

You can verify this value by issuing the following commands. For this example the names of the user, instance, and database are ldapdb2.

For AIX® and Linux™ platforms:

su - ldapdb2
db2start
db2 get database config for ldapdb2 | grep LOGFILSIZ

To increase this value, issue the following command:

db2 update database config for ldapdb2 using LOGFILSIZ 2000
db2 force applications all
db2stop
db2start

For Windows™ platforms:

db2cmd
set DB2INSTANCE=ldapdb2
db2 get database config for ldapdb2 outputfile

Find the value for LOGFILSIZ in the output file. To increase this value, issue the following command:

db2 update database config for ldapdb2 using LOGFILSIZ 2000
db2 force applications all
db2stop
db2start

Note: This value is already set correctly if you created or configured your database with the Configuration Tool.
