ASF subversion and git services commented on GEODE-8533: -------------------------------------------------------- Commit 09bccd5cc70a874c479f353724bbd01feaaa7015 in geode's branch refs/heads/support/1.13 from Dave Barnes [ https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=geode.git;h=09bccd5 ] GEODE-8533: Docs - compaction-threshold mechanism description are wrong (#5549) * GEODE-8533: User Guide - compaction-threshold is properly described as percentage of live data, below which an OpLog is marked for compaction > User Guide - compaction-threshold mechanism descriptions are wrong > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: GEODE-8533 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-8533 > Project: Geode > Issue Type: Bug > Components: docs > Affects Versions: 1.13.0 > Reporter: Dave Barnes > Assignee: Dave Barnes > Priority: Major > Labels: pull-request-available > > Zhengzhi Xu reports: > The compaction threshold mechanism is misleading in current document. > CompactionThreshold is percentage of remaining live data in the oplog at > which an oplog is compactable, while current user document is described as > percentage of garbage in the oplog like the below: > --compaction-threshold: Percentage of garbage allowed in the file before it > is eligible for compaction. > The correct description is in the API document: > {code:java} > DiskStoreFactory setCompactionThreshold(int compactionThreshold) Sets the > threshold at which an oplog will become compactable. Until it reaches this > threshold the oplog will not be compacted. The threshold is a percentage in > the range 0..100. When the amount of live data in an oplog becomes less than > this percentage then when a compaction is done this garbage will be cleaned > up freeing up disk space. Garbage is created by entry destroys, entry > updates, and region destroys. Parameters: compactionThreshold - percentage of > remaining live data in the oplog at which an oplog is compactable{code} > > -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
