LogDatabaseName - System Parameter
Take Full Control of Your Nodinite Log Databases Naming for Seamless Operations
In any modern IT environment, consistency and control are key to maintaining efficiency and compliance. The LogDatabaseName System Parameter in Nodinite empowers your organization by allowing you to define and manage the naming scheme for Log Databases automatically created by the system.
Why This Matters
By taking control of database naming, you gain:
✅ Consistency & Compliance – Ensure all log databases follow a standardized, predictable naming convention, which may also be required by internal policies or external regulations.
✅ Enhanced Troubleshooting & Maintenance – A structured naming scheme makes it easier for teams to locate, analyze, and resolve issues faster.
✅ Optimized Multi-Tenant & Shared Environments – Avoid naming conflicts and ensure seamless log database management across different teams or customers.
✅ Scalability & Automation – Let the system handle database creation based on predefined rules, reducing manual work and ensuring operational efficiency.
How It Works
With the right access permissions, the Nodinite Logging Service automatically creates new Nodinite Log Databases following this System Parameter. It also integrates with other key parameters to fine-tune database behavior, including:
- DaysToSplitDatabaseOn

- LogDatabaseRecovery
- SizeToSplitDatabaseOn
Tip
In shared environments, sticking to a well-defined naming scheme is crucial for ensuring database uniqueness and streamlining troubleshooting.
