Nonstop Database, HiRDB Version 9 System Operation Guide
A log input buffer for rollback is an area provided for each server in shared memory. This buffer differs from a log output buffer used for outputting system logs in that a single buffer sector is exclusively allocated to each transaction that rolls back. Therefore, depending on the sector count of a given log input buffer for rollback, the number of rollback processes that can be executed concurrently might be limited.
Tuning the sector count of a log input buffer for rollback can increase the number of rollback processes that can be executed concurrently. It might also shorten the rollback processing time.
