Thanks Bruce.. A few followup questions..
Is there any bound on how large these files can grow or a way to
configure a smaller value for the recovery log?
I don't believe the files grow at all. IIRC the logger
preallocates the files so it is fast.
Why does a simple server startup require 41M of recovery data?
No user applications have been installed on this server yet.
Most likely, but what kind of user machine doesn't have 40M of
free disk space?
Was thinking of the case where geronimo is an embedded technology..
ISVs generally like embedded technologies to be as small and fast
as possible. Just seems strange that starting the server nearly
doubles the disk footprint when no user applications are installed.
Any chance of shrinking the default size for the recovery log. Is
40M really needed? It seems a bit excessive..
Sure. In an embedded scenario, the ISV would tweak the howl
configuration to reduce the foot print. Now exact what you change is
something David Jencks will have to tell us.
