Definition

Online uses the logical log buffer to store a record of changes to Online data since the last archive. There are three logical log buffers located in the shared memory area. Tripple buffering permits the logical logs vitrual processor to write to the active buffer while one of the others is being flushed to the current logical log file on disk, and eventually to the logical log backup tapes.

The LOGBUFF parameter in the ONCONFIG* file located in the directory $INFORMIXDIR/etc specifies the size of the logical log buffers.

To determine if tuning is needed, see the help description for the log.log written/IO parameter.
