Using onutil SET to configure the LOGSIZE parameter

You can use the onutil SET command to modify the values of many configuration parameters while the server is on-line. The following example shows how to modify the in-memory value of the LOGSIZE parameter:

% onutil
1>    SET LOGSIZE 55000;
Dynamic Configuration completed successfully.

This change is not persistent. If the server is restarted, the change will be lost. To make the change persistent across server restarts use the PERSISTENT keyword:

% onutil
1> SET LOGSIZE 55000 PERSISTENT;
Dynamic Configuration completed successfully.

The PERSISTENT keyword causes the configuration file to be rewritten with the new value. For more information on the onutil SET command, see the utilities chapter in the IBM Informix: Administrator's Reference.
