Summary

The Activity Log is a component of the Laserfiche 8 Notifications system that stores a recent history of notifications. Products that rely on the notifications system use the Activity Log to check for missed notifications.

By default, the Activity Log has a maximum size limit of 500,000 rows if you are using MSDE or an Express edition of Microsoft SQL Server. The default size limit is 2,000,000 rows for full editions of Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle.

When the Activity Log reaches the maximum size limit, Laserfiche trims the log by 20%.

Add the following two options to the dboptions table in your repository's SQL database to modify the default behavior:

• ActivityLogMaxRows
• ActivityLogTrimAmount

More Information

The value of ActivityLogMaxRows specifies the maximum number of rows for the activity log. The value of ActivityLogTrimAmount specifies how many rows to delete when the log hits the ActivityLogMaxRows limit. The value for ActivityLogTrimAmount can either be a percentage (e.g., 20%) or a specific number of rows.

Setting ActivityLogMaxRows to 0 means there is no limit. ActivityLogMaxRows cannot be less than 50,000. Laserfiche uses the default value if you set an invalid value.
