Fixed In Version: | 389-ds-base-1.3.1.6-5.el7 | Doc Type: | Bug Fix |
Doc Text: |
Cause: Using the -D argument to logconv.pl is supposed to use the given directory to create the temporary files. logconv.pl was writing a large amount of data in files in /var/tmp instead of the argument given to -D.
Consequence: Could fill /var/tmp.
Fix: The Berkeley DB tied perl arrays were causing this behavior. The fix is to get rid of arrays as much as possible, and get rid of all tied arrays.
Result: /var/tmp is not in danger of filling up, the directory specified with -D is used, performance is much faster, disk usage is much less.

hi, i verified the logconv.pl -D option and the script creates the temp files in the directory following -D option and not in the /var/tmp directory. the access log file is a customer log file. the command was as follows logconv.pl -D /RHEL7/data/DS/6.0/logfile/en/stat /RHEL7/data/DS/6.0/logfile/en/access.20120131-000045 this was tested on the latest build. Test cases automated in ./logfile/logconv.sh Marking the bug as Verified as per comment #2 This request was resolved in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.0.
