Set Threshold Percentage of Disk Space to Reset Log State

Use this policy to specify a threshold percentage of disk space that is added to the minimum percentage of disk space (set in the Set minimum percentage of disk space group policy) that determines when the information/warning/error log state is reset. Message logging resumes only after the log state is reset.

When disk space drops below the minimum percentage (for example, 10%), a warning is logged. Additional warnings are not logged until disk space has risen above the minimum percentage + threshold percentage (for example, 10% + 2% = 12%), and then drops again to below the minimum percentage (10%).

Setting a threshold percentage is useful to prevent unnecessary log messages when disk space hovers near the minimum percentage and would otherwise trigger a log message every time the minimum percentage is crossed.

If this group policy is enabled, the percentage that you specify is used.

If this group policy is disabled or not configured, a default value of 2 percent is used.

To use this group policy:

  1. Double click the policy in the right pane of the Group Policy Management Editor.
  2. On the Policy tab, select Enabled.
  3. Specify a percentage.
  4. Click OK to save settings in this policy.

This group policy modifies the spool.diskspace.logstate.reset.threshold setting in the configuration file /etc/centrifyda/centrifyda.conf.
