The Derby engine has some trivial mxbeans which return simple, static facts--but nothing which would give you visibility into the progress of boot-time recovery.

Upon further investigation, I've seen if there are more than 4 files in the

files mount instantly. I had the idea of monitoring that directory to see
if the file count changes during the recovery process. It does, but
sometimes the count goes up, other times it goes down or does not change
until shutdown.. I was hoping to get a notice to the user of something like
30% complete or a progress bar kind of thing. So no luck there.

Is this information exposed as a mxbean by chance?  Even with cranking up
the logging for derby, there doesn't appear to be any indication of what's
going on.

That's perfect, although from my testing, it seems like more than 4 files
indicate an unclean shutdown. I just want to alert the user that it may
take some time to fire up the database connection

There is very easy way to check if you are going to run database recovery
at boot time by looking into logs subfolder. If you gracefully shut down,
there are only two log files. If there are more your database will perform
roll forward recovery, in worst case applying all the log files.

I don't know of any special trace flags for this. Maybe something will
turn up in derby.log if you set the diagnostic logging level to its most
verbose level by running the application with the following system property:



   -Dderby.stream.error.logSeverityLevel=0



Hope this helps,

Thanks i'll give it a shot.

Is there any logging in derby that i can enable into regarding this?

The usual cause for this behavior is that the application was brought

down ungracefully, say via a control-c or by killing the window where it

was running. The engine then needs to reconstruct the state of the

database by replaying many recovery logs. To gracefully exit Derby, you

need to explicitly shutdown Derby as described here:

Sometimes when my app starts, it can take several minutes to initialize

database. Is there a way to find out whats going on? There isn't much log

output. I have overridden derby.stream.error.method but other than the

startup message, I don't have much to go on.



Is there perhaps a startup database file check or something?
