In my INIT.ORA file the parameter "log_small_entry_max_size " is not there.

Does this mean the value is not set? If NO then how can I find out the default value of this parameter. I know its OS dependent, but how will know the exact value. My server is 8i and is running on an NT machine.

The reason why I want to know is I am trying to tune the redo-log buffer for latch contention.

Please help.
