Laxman commented on ZOOKEEPER-1107:
-----------------------------------
Snap and logs clean is a nice to have feature as part of zookeeper rather as a
cron.
I've considered the following points apart from the one mentioned by Jun.
a) Cron jobs are difficult to debug in case of any issue.
[Yet another process, Logs - Just my personal view]
b) I would like to run cron job only when zookeeper is running. It will be
difficult to manage two different processes [from an Operation Management
perspective].
c)
bq. don't cleanup unless the operator explicitly requests
We can still maintain this by making it configurable.
Correct me if my understanding is wrong.
Following is the implementation I've in mind.
a) Number of snapshots to retain and
b) A purge task will be spawned at the startup.
I can submit a patch based on suggestions.
