Add API for selective bundle consistency check (Jackrabbit-specific)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JCR-1428
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1428
Project: Jackrabbit
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: jackrabbit-core
Reporter: Alexander Klimetschek
Fix For: 1.3.4
Add a jackrabbit-specific API for doing a selective consistencyCheck, ie. on
single nodes. The current entire-workspace check can be very slow if there
workspace is large enough. Also it should be easy to write a tool to invoke
that feature programmatically rather than by configuration + restart (see
below).
Existing Implementation:
The current bundle consistencyCheck feature is enabled by setting a bundle PM
parameter and restarting Jackrabbit, it will then run upon startup (see JCR-972
for the only issue regarding bundle consistency check). This check looks for
broken parent-child relationships, ie. it will remove any child node entries
that reference non-existing parent nodes. For non-existing parent UUIDs and
other problems in bundles it will log those.
Outlook:
An advanced consistencyCheck could also check for non-existing version nodes
and vice-versa (see JCR-630), but this is not the focus of this issue and could
be a later addition to the API.
