CkptLogVolume
The CkptLogVolume connection attribute controls the amount of data in megabytes that collects in the log between background checkpoints.
The counter used for the checkpoint condition is reset at the beginning of each checkpoint.
If both CkptFrequency and CkptLogVolume attributes have a value greater than 0, a checkpoint is performed when either of the two conditions becomes true. The values set by the ttCkptConfig built-in procedure replace the values set by these attributes.
In the case that your application attempts to perform a checkpoint operation while a background checkpoint is in process, TimesTen waits until the background checkpoint finishes and then executes the application's checkpoint.
The value of this attribute is "sticky" as it persists across database loads and unloads unless it is explicitly changed. The default value is only used during database creation. Subsequent first connections default to using the existing value stored in the database.
When the value of this attribute is more than 0 and CkptFrequency=0, if a checkpoint fails, TimesTen attempts a checkpoint every 30 seconds. If a checkpoint failure occurs due to a lack of file system space, we recommend that you attempt a manual checkpoint as soon as space is available. Once any successful checkpoint occurs, background checkpointing reverts to the configured schedule.
Required Privilege
Only the instance administrator can change the value of this attribute.
Usage in TimesTen Scaleout and TimesTen Classic
This attribute is supported in both TimesTen Classic and TimesTen Scaleout.Setting
Set CkptLogVolume as follows:
| Where to set the attribute | How the attribute is represented | Setting |
|---|---|---|
|
C or Java programs or UNIX and Linux systems |
|
Specify the amount of data in megabytes that can accumulate in the transaction log file between background checkpoints. The default is the value supplied for the LogFileSize attribute. For an existing database, TimesTen uses the stored value. If the attribute is specified, but you do not supply a value, TimesTen uses the value supplied for the LogFileSize attribute. |
