------------------------------------
Summary: Keep more transaction log files when maxNumLogsToKeep is
specified
Key: SOLR-11483
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-11483
Project: Solr
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
Reporter: Varun Thacker
We allow users to control the number of transaction log files the system should
keep ( maxNumLogsToKeep ) and the number of records to keep ( numRecordsToKeep )
However just by setting numRecordsToKeep we are not guaranteed that the system
will actually keep that many records.
This comment explains why -
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6359?focusedCommentId=15214361&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-15214361
A tradeoff would be if a user explicitly specifies numRecordsToKeep and
doesn't specify maxNumLogsToKeep then we should use a higher default for
maxNumLogsToKeep ( say 1000 instead of 10 today )
Off course better documentation will help so if others think this is a bad idea
then we can close this out and just make sure it's documented and if users know
about one parameter they will know about the other parameter as well
