2.3.1.54. nsslapd-errorlog-maxlogsize (Maximum Error Log Size)
This attribute sets the maximum error log size in megabytes. When this value is reached, the error
log is rotated, and the server starts writing log information to a new log file. If nsslapd-errorlog-
maxlogsperdir is set to 1, the server ignores this attribute.
When setting a maximum log size, consider the total number of log files that can be created due
to log file rotation. Also, remember that there are three different log files (access log, audit log, and
error log) maintained by the Directory Server, each of which consumes disk space. Compare these
considerations to the total amount of disk space for the error log.
