             Summary: [linearstore] Incompletely created journal files accumulate in EFP
                 Key: QPID-5464
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5464
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: C++ Broker
            Reporter: Kim van der Riet
            Assignee: Kim van der Riet
            Priority: Minor


In tests which kill the broker during operation or in situations where the broker is rudely interrupted while creating new journal files, incomplete journal files of incorrect size accumulate in the empty file pools. The code precludes these files from being used, but they are not deleted either, so they sit indefinitely in the EFP directories tying up disk resources.

These files should:
1. be moved into a separate directory if they are shown to be non-empty (for possible forensic analysis), or
2. deleted if they are empty, freeing up disk resources.

This check should probably happen on broker/linearstore startup, as this is when unused journal files are repatriated to their EFPs.
