WARNING: If you turn on roll-forward logging, don't use the default location. For fault
tolerance, put the directory on a different disk partition/volume and storage device than
eDirectory. The roll-forward logs directory must be on the server where the backup
configuration is being changed.
IMPORTANT: If you turn on roll-forward logging, you must monitor disk space on the
volume where you place the roll-forward logs. If left unchecked, the log file directory will
grow until it fills up the disk partition/volume. If roll-forward logs cannot be created because
no more disk space is available, eDirectory stops responding on that server. We recommend
you periodically back up and remove unused roll-forward logs from your server. See
“Backing
Up and Removing Roll-Forward Logs” on page 392 .
The following is an example of the screen.
