Any solution to remove these messages ?

The EVENT_POOL_SIZE param in NOTES.INI can be set up to 5Mb. It defaults to 3Mb.

The log file grows too large …

Is this bug resolved in 6.5.2 ?

Subject: Solution: EVENT_POOL_SIZE param in NOTES.INI

Lotus states, that the setting for “EVENT_POOL_SIZE” is set in MBytes as of version 6.x.

Through our tests we have established, that this is not correct (at least on Linux and AIX). The setting should still be set in Bytes!

To check this, one can simply call a “tell event dump” and will be returned the size of the event pool. This will be maximum 65536 Bytes when the size is set in MBytes.

To correct this:

  1. Stop the Domino server

  2. Change the Notes.ini setting from MB to Bytes (or in config doc, but this then needs to be checked if it has been written into the Notes.ini)

  3. restart the Domino Server

To check if working correctly:

  • call the “tell event dump” - you will see that a greater size has been allocated (than 64Kb).

  • check if errors concerning event monitor log still occur. If so, increase the size (in Bytes)
