Vinay commented on BOOKKEEPER-673:
----------------------------------
Good finding Ivan. This issue might be there from the long time I think.
bq. is there any application relying on this length field rather than the LAC
field?
I don't think so, if yes, it would have been found long back.
>From inside BK client code, this field value doesn't harm as of now.
> Ledger length can be inaccurate in failure case

> Ledger length can be inconsistent if a ledger is closed by a writing client
> that encounters an error. For example, in a cluster with 3 bookies, and an
> ledger with a q3e3 configuration, if a bookie dies, the client will close the
> ledger when it fails to write an entry. However, it has already added the
> length of the failed entry to the local ledger length, and this is what is
> stored to zk.
