What happens when you flush all tables - you can do that via the shell, and
then issue a log_roll - also via the shell?HBase needs to keep the logs around
as long as there is even a single edit left in it that is not guaranteed to be
flushed to disk.

Subject: .oldlogs arent being cleaned
Hi,
We have a cluster participating in cycle replication.
We noticed that the .oldlogs folder takes 4.4T (4.4 T /hbase/.oldlogs).
The replication is working fine and snapshots are used well right now, but
I noticed that the last oldlogs file was added at October 2014.
Does anyone have any idea why they aren’t being cleaned? Can I delete them?
I am running hbase 0.94.6 (CDH 4.5).
Thanks,
