Description:
If you specify UNDO_BUFFER_SIZE more than 17M in CREATE LOGFILE GROUP statment you wll get error 1506. UNDO_BUFFER_SIZE is limited by the system memory so 17M should not be the maximum limit.
To reproduce run the following statment:

 CREATE LOGFILE GROUP lg2
 ADD UNDOFILE './var/undofile.dat'
 INITIAL_SIZE 16M
 UNDO_BUFFER_SIZE = 20M
 ENGINE=NDB;

 DROP LOGFILE GROUP lg2
 ENGINE=NDB;

How to repeat:
see above

  typically prior to this fix, one could also get crashes in pgman.
