ACSLS - acsdb_start.log is Getting Database Transaction Log Messages (Doc ID 1918658.1)

Last updated on JULY 11, 2022

Applies to:

Sun StorageTek Auto Cartridge Sys Lib SW (ACSLS) High Availability - Version 8.0 Sun Cluster to 8.5 [Release 8.0]
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

The acsdb_start.log keeps on growing without log rotation. The log file size is +30GB after two weeks and have to be cleared manually to avoid haveing a full filesystem.

The Postgres service start up seems to associate the acsdb_start.log to Postgres debug outputs. By design, only /etc/init.d/acsdb script should be the only script that outputs to the acsdb_start.log.

 

Example of messages from Postgres that are sent to acsdb_start.log:
------
# tail -n 100 acsdb_start.log
           :cteList <>
           :rtable (
              {RTE
              :alias <>
              :eref
                 {ALIAS
                 :aliasname event_identifier_table
                 :colnames ("event_sequence" "event_timestamp" "client_id" "event_type
                 " "event_status")
                 }
              :rtekind 0
              :relid 17810
              :inh true
              :inFromCl true
              :requiredPerms 2
              :checkAsUser 0
              :selectedCols (b 10)
              :modifiedCols (b)
              }
           )
           :jointree

This is an example of the messages that we expect to be in acsdb_start.log:
