Defines an instance database log file.

Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Nmo
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo (in microsoft.sqlserver.smo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public NotInheritable Class InstanceDatabaseLogFile
    Inherits NamedSmoObject

public sealed class InstanceDatabaseLogFile : NamedSmoObject

public ref class InstanceDatabaseLogFile sealed : public NamedSmoObject

public final class InstanceDatabaseLogFile extends NamedSmoObject

public final class InstanceDatabaseLogFile extends NamedSmoObject

Remarks

Each instance database can has one or more log files. You can define zero or more log files; if you do not define a log file, Notification Services uses Microsoft SQL Server default settings and creates a single log file that is 25 percent of the sum of the all the database's data files' sizes or 512 KB, whichever is larger.

For more information about defining log files, see CREATE DATABASE (Transact-SQL).

If you want to alter the instance database after creating the instance, use the Microsoft SQL Server tools, such as SQL Server Management Studio.

Example

The following examples show how to define a log file for an instance database:

InstanceDatabaseLogFile idb_log = 
    new InstanceDatabaseLogFile(idb, "MyInst_LogFile1");
idb_log.FileName = @"C:\NS\Full\MyInst_LogFile1.ldf";
idb_log.InitialSize = "3MB";
idb_log.MaxSize = "10MB";
idb_log.GrowthIncrement = "10%";
idb.InstanceDatabaseLogFiles.Add(idb_log);

Dim idb_log As InstanceDatabaseLogFile = _
    New InstanceDatabaseLogFile(idb, "MyInst_LogFile1")
idb_log.FileName = "C:\NS\Full\MyInst_LogFile1.ldf"
idb_log.InitialSize = "3MB"
idb_log.MaxSize = "10MB"
idb_log.GrowthIncrement = "10%"
idb.InstanceDatabaseLogFiles.Add(idb_log)

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Microsoft Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
