Fileset Advanced Parameters

The following parameters are advanced ones, and they should not be modified in the great majority of cases:

Option	Required	Default	Values	Example	Description
stream_sleep	No	1	Positive integer (1/10 secconds)	5	Time to sleep when reading header packets from FD and not having a full header available
stream_max_wait	No	120	Positive integer (seconds)	360	Max wait time for FD to answer packet requests
time_max_last_modify_log	No	86400	Positive integer (seconds)	43200	Maximum time to wait to overwrite a debug log that was marked as being used by other process
logging_max_file_size	No	50MB	String size	300MB	Maximum size of a single debug log fileGenerates the working/amazon-rds/amazon-rds-debug.log* files containing debut information which is more complete with a greater debug number
logging_max_backup_index	No	25	Positive integer (number of files)	50	Maximum number of log files to keep
log_rolling_file_pattern	No	amazon-rds.log.%d{dd-MMM}.log.gz”	String file name pattern	…	Log pattern for rotated log files
split_config_file	No	=	Character	:	Character to be used in config_file parameter as separator for keys and values
publisher_queue_timeout_secs	No	1200	Positive integer (seconds)	3600	Timeout when internal object publisher queue is full

The internal plugin logging framework presents some relevant features that we are going to describe:

The .log files are rotated automatically. Currently, each file can be 50Mb at maximum and the plugin will keep 25 files.
- This behavior can be changed using the internal advanced parameters: logging_max_file_size and logging_max_backup_index.
The .err file can show contents even if no actual error has occurred during the jobs. It can also present contents even if debugging is disabled. This file is not rotated, but it is generally anticipated to remain small in size. If you still need to rotate it, you can include it in a general rotating tool such as logrotate.
Backups in parallel and also failed backups will generate several log files. For example: amazon-rds-debug-0.log, amazon-rds-debug-1.log, and so on.
