Log management tool

The log management tool enables the LDAP administrator to limit the size of log files.

The tool idslogmgmt wakes up every 15 minutes, checks the log files sizes, and moves files that exceed the maximum log size threshold in to an archive file. The number of archived logs can also be limited. Except for the administrative tools' and the idslogmgmt log , the configuration settings for the logs are located in the ibmslapd configuration file. See the idslogmgmt command information in the Command Reference section in the IBM® Security Verify Directory documentation for more information.
Note: The log management tool requires that you have IBM Security Verify Directory Integrator installed.
Attention: IBM Security Verify Directory might crash if the size of any log file exceeds the size of the system file size limit. Such a situation might typically occur when tracing is enabled on the server.
