Table 2–3: Background writers database configuration properties
(3 of 3)
Property Description
After image stall Suspend database activity if all the
after-image (AI) files are filled.
By default, if all the AI files are filled and the
database cannot switch to an empty one, the
database shuts down. With AI stall, you can
suspend database activity, back up the full
after-image file, and mark it as empty.
The check box is cleared by default.
After image buffers The number of after-image buffers to use.
This parameter is useful only when running
the after-image writer (AIW) process because
the AIW writes the filled after-image buffers
to disk, making the buffers available to other
client and server processes.
The default value is 5.
Group delay The number of milliseconds a transaction
waits before committing.
