Christopher L. Shannon commented on AMQ-6203:
---------------------------------------------
I agree with Tim that it is a bit risky to back port this. But I think it is
ok to do it as long as it is off by default. So I will go ahead and do that
for a 5.13.3 release because it seems there are a few different people
requesting this.
> KahaDB: Allow rewrite of message acks in older logs which prevent cleanup
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AMQ-6203
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-6203
> Project: ActiveMQ
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: KahaDB
> Affects Versions: 5.13.0, 5.13.1, 5.12.3, 5.13.2
> Reporter: Timothy Bish
> Assignee: Timothy Bish
> Fix For: 5.14.0
>
>
> There are cases where a chain of journal logs can grow due to acks for
> messages in older logs needing to be kept so that on recovery proper state
> can be restored and older messages not be resurrected.
> In many cases just moving the acks from one log forward to a new log can free
> an entire chain during subsequent GC cycles. The 'compacted' ack log can be
> written during the time between GC cycles without the index lock being held
> meaning normal broker operations can continue.
