Someone changed the logsize in the ONCONFIG file using either onparams, onmonitor, or some editor like vi or emacs. The point is it matters not unless you want to add more log files. If you want your new logs to be the same size as the old logs you will have to change the LOGSIZE back either in the ONCONFIG file directly or using onmonitor or onparams. Actually, on second thought, since the current LOGSIZE value is off by one order of magnitude it looks more like someone accidentally deleted a zero in vi or wiped out the field in onmonitor by accident and mistyped it trying to put it back the way it was. Anyway, again, it does not matter. You can have logfiles of several different sizes and the engine does not really care. Art S. Kagel
