How to increase or set MaxFileSize in DailyRollingFileAppender in log4j.xml

Question

In my application logfile will Rollover every hour ,but the logfile is not able to handle or store more than 1000MB(approximately) size .How can I increase the size of logfile to more than 5GB??

Here is my log4j.xml

<appender name="DailyLogFile" class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender">
        <param name="File" value="./application.log" /> 
         <param name="Append" value="true" />
        <param name="Threshold" value="debug" />

     <param name="DatePattern" value="'.Hourly_'yyyy_MM_dd_HH" /> 
        <rollingPolicy class="org.apache.log4j.rolling.TimeBasedRollingPolicy">
            <param name="fileNamePattern" value="./application_%d{ddMMMyyyy HH}**.gz**" />
            <param name="rollOver" value="TRUE" />
        </rollingPolicy>
        <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
            <param name="ConversionPattern"
                value="%d [%t] %-5p (%F:%L) - %m%n" />
        </layout>
    </appender> 
    <root>
        <priority value="INFO" />
        <appender-ref ref="DailyLogFile" />
    </root>

Any help will be appreciated....

Have you checked 1000 MB is not the limit on your filesystem? — Ricardo Vila, Aug 20 '15 at 12:22
