Richard Magill) Newsgroups: comp.sys.isis Subject: ISIS logger question Message-ID:Date: 2 Oct 89 23:30:47 GMT Sender: rich@sendai.UUCP Reply-To: rich@sendai.ann-arbor.mi.us Organization: Digital Works, Ltd. - Ann Arbor, MI Lines: 11 How does the logging facility decide to checkpoint state? eg, is it adaptive? is it a balance of state-size/time-to-write vs. transaction log? is it every T seconds? can I tailor it? Specifically, suppose I have three processes in a system. The first process has very little state but processes mega-traffic on that state. The second has mega-state, but processes medium traffic. The third has state that dynamically changes; sometimes large, sometimes small. I want to log all of them, and efficiently. (ps, the answer belongs in the manual.)
