DaysToSplitDatabaseOn - System Parameter
The DaysToSplitDatabaseOn System Parameter determines how old the online Log Database can get before a new online Log Database is created. The Logging Service can create new Log Databases as they grow either too old or too large.
We at Nodinite recommend setting a large number, such as 10,000 days (the default in the Install and Update Tool), which practically disables this feature unless you specifically want to use it. This option is ideal for organizations that want to plan and automate the creation of new databases for optimal performance and compliance.
| System Parameter Name | Data Type | Values/Example | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| DaysToSplitDatabaseOn | integer | 365 (once every year) | Default = 10000 (Practically disabled) |
This feature is available from Nodinite version 3.
