Re: [nv-l] Change the size of ovwdb cache

No, changing the lrf file is not enough.  It is just the permanent repository of the daemon options.  It is not read by ovspmd when starting daemons.  He reads /usr/OV/conf/ovsuf.   After you change the file, you have to register the new value so that it is reflected correctly in /usr/OV/conf/ovsuf.

After you change the lrf file you must do:
(1) /usr/OV/bin/ovdelobj /usr/OV/lrf/ovwdb.lrf        
                                    to de-register the old definition, and then
(2) /usr/OV/bin/ovaddobj /usr/OV/lrf/ovwdb.lrf                                       
        to register the new one.

Hello,

NV 7.1.3
Solaris 7

I wanted to change the size of ovwdb cache. But i did not want to use the
"serversetup" tool, because
this tool restarts the daemon immediately. I wanted to restart the daemon
at midnight (with crontab and script)

Yesterday, I manually changed the /usr/OV/lrf/ovwdb.lrf file. At midnight
the daemon was restarted, but with the
old chache size. The entry in ovwdb.lrf was ignored.

What did i wrong ? I thought , a change in ovwdb.lrf is all i have to do.

Thanks

Swen
