Change the disk usage of EGO allocation event data files

If your system logs a large number of events, increase the disk space allocated to the EGO allocation event data files. If your disk space is insufficient, decrease the space allocated to the EGO allocation event data files or move these files to another location.

  1. Edit ego.conf.

    Windows: %EGO_CONFDIR%

    Linux/UNIX: $EGO_CONFDIR

    1. To change the size of each EGO allocation event data file, specify or change the EGO_DATA_MAXSIZE parameter.

      EGO_DATA_MAXSIZE = integer

      If unspecified, this is 10 by default. Change this to the new desired file size in MB.

    2. To move the files to another location, specify or change the EGO_DATA_FILE parameter.

      EGO_DATA_FILE = file_path

      If unspecified, this is EGO_TOP/kernel/work/data/ego.stream by default.

  2. In the command console, restart EGO on the master host to activate this change.

    egosh ego restart master_host_name
