I'm publishing messages to a durable LVQ, when I run the publisher for the first time the journal stays almost full, then I send the exact same messages, expecting the old ones to be replaced, but after some time the

Depends on what you mean by 'expected' :-)

It is certainly the case that the linux journal will reach capacity
with different queue depths, depending on exact sequences of changes.
i.e. the capacity is not simply a function of the final state, but
also of the path to get there. In the second case there would be
additional dequeue records and the file boundaries might not align the
same way etc, so the journal space can be used up for fewer enqueued
messages.


Thank you Gordon.
I think I can say that's the expected to me... :) Although I need to
know what journal size is effectively in use, can be a percentage, is
that possible? I have a stored queue for browsing, like a dictionary,
that is updated every night, and I want to reset it only if it reaches
to a given percentage of journal size.

Not sure if I understand the question correctly, but there is no simple way of determining the minimum journal size needed to guarantee a specific queue depth. The rule I use is to size the journal much larger than I think I need (e.g. 2x the queue depth). Kim has some text somewhere on the calculations involved I believe.

Its also worth then setting a queue policy on the queue with the depth fixed (and significantly less than the journal capacity). That way you get a cleaner error when you hit the limit.


Sorry the delay.

I was asking if there is a way to know the used size of the journal in a given time. When I run my publisher for the first time, and in qpid- stat the queue size 2m in bytes, how can I know the effectively used journal?

Tia.
