| Option | MAX_EVENT_SIZE | |
| Description | Specifies the maximum allowed event size | |
| Default | 1 MiB | |
| Maximum | 10,000,000 bytes (10 MB) | |
Controls the maximum allowed size for an event. If you increase this value, you will also need to increase the following variables:
TOPIC_MAX_MESSAGE_BYTES- this enables the producer to send larger messages, and for LogScale to configure the topic to enable it to store larger messages. If the topic already exists, you need to edit the Kafka topic configuration - the relevant setting to change ismax.message.bytes. Refer to the Kafka documentation for more details.KAFKA_INGEST_QUEUE_PRODUCER_SEND_BUFFER_BYTES- This enables you to increase the TCP buffer size for the producer. SeeKAFKA_INGEST_QUEUE_PRODUCER_for more details, especially on how to map between LogScale variables and Kafka variables.
Warning
Increasing this variable may have adverse affects for overall system performance, specifically that of LogScale and Kafka. If you increase this value, make sure you also configure LogScale and Kafka accordingly.
