Thread: consider increasing WAL_FILES

I dump database from 7.0.3 and attempting
to restore to 7.1rc4. And get the following
messages.  I can reproduce them by
dropping new db and recreating new ones.

Line number varies from one restore to
the next and 'MoveOfflineLogs' message
was seen only once

Should I worry?  How do I increase
WAL_FILES?

The largest table has about 500,000 entries.

Thanks in advance

Not unless you see that message frequently during routine operations.
Initial bulk data load doesn't count as routine ...

See the documentation.
